Stella McCartney has forced a fur company to pull their new season ads after they used one of her bras on a model.
The vegan designer was not impressed when she realised Hockley had accesorised one of their real mink coats with a bra from her lingerie collection, reports vogue.
According to reports, Stella threatened leagl action if the ad was not removed from the label's autumn/winter campaign.
"If Stella knew it was going to be used by Hockley there is no way she would have lent it. It was loaned to a stylist in good faith, but when Stella saw the picture she was furious," a source who works with the designer revealed to the Mail On Sunday. "She said: 'It goes against everything I stand for.'"
"She didn't see any proofs, she just saw campaign. It's a monumental cock-up. Stella is disgusted."

Stella is incredible. So talented and compassionate. Wearing fur is so disturbing and looks like roadkill. Its the 21st century, I can;t believe some backwards people still wear it.

Stella McCartney is a stellar example of compassion in action. I wish more people (celebrities or not), would stand up for what they believe in.
