New York, July 20 (IANS) Fashion designer Stella McCartney has urged Hollywood wildchild Lindsay Lohan to stop wearing fur.
The “Mean Girls” star has been snapped wearing animal pelts and leather on numerous occasions and McCartney, daughter of Beatles legend Paul and his late wife Linda, has asked the singer-actress to quit fur, reports buzzhollywood.com
“Lindsay wears a lot of Stella’s designs and she doesn’t want to be associated with a high-profile star who insists on wearing animal products,” said a source.
A spokeswoman for McCartney added: “She never uses fur and encourages everyone to opt for a vegetarian lifestyle.”
Stella McCartney is a strict vegetarian and a supporter of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) who have also contacted Lohan earlier for the same reasons.
In a bizarre incident last year, unknown campaigners in Paris, France, even threw flour over her in protest at a fur coat she was sporting.

I don’t think Stella should impose her views on Lindsay nor anyone else. Lindsay loves fur and leather and I think she looks fab in it! She should stay looking cool and beautiful. Vegetarians and Vegans are entitled to their views but it makes me uncomfortable when they try to tell other people what to think and do. Everyone’s free to do and wear and eat what they want!!!
