Stella was just at the beginning of her fashion career here and was designing for Chloe with Phoebe Philo. Tom Ford under the direction of Claude Arnault of LVMH pursued her to work for them in Paris on her own label. Alexander McQueen was also also asked to jump on board and did at that time. Stella has never looked back. She is now with PPR (Pinault-Printemps-Redoute)  competition to LVMH and her label is a thriving fashion house. Stella the middle child of Linda and Paul McCartney has proved herself to have the same drive and ambition of her father Sir Paul and late mother Linda who was also a business woman in her own right. With three children and another on the way Stella decided to launch her own children's wear collection. Check out fashiontent4kids to find out more. http://fashiontent4kids.tumblr.com/
