Stella McCartney

Next one in the list of the most famous fashion designers from England is Stella McCartney. Stella McCartney had a rocky start to her career, but after a few seasons as creative director at Chloé, she saw her score producing sexy, ladylike, and unique pieces. Following her stay at Chloé, McCartney launched her namesake label, where she adopted a full-grown, custom-fitted style that drew in the upper levels of society. Throughout it all, she has kept true to her ideals by refusing to work with fur or calfskin.

Stella studied at Central St Martins School of Fashion and Art and graduated in 1995. Her hallmark fashion style is sharp cuts, a confident, feminine, and sensual demeanor, which is seen in her graduating collection. Stella was appointed Creative Director of the iconic French fashion label Chloe just two years after graduating from Central St Martins. She debuted her self-titled fashion label in 2001, with her first collection shown in Paris.

As a vegetarian, she has never used fur, leather, feathers, or skin in her collections. Sustainability has stayed at the heart of every collection as the firm has grown. Since then, the design brand has grown to include a perfume line, an athleisure collaboration with Adidas, and a lingerie collection. The Falabella, Stella McCartney's first iconic purse, was introduced in 2009 and quickly became a best-seller. Stella McCartney has been named Creative Director for Team GB's Olympic uniform and gear. She was the first fashion designer to create clothing for a country's Olympic squad in every sport.
