Stella McCartney

Stella McCartney, Paul McCartney's daughter, joined the troubled Paris fashion house Chloé barely a year ago. It has taken her just one year to reverse its fortunes. Previously Chloé was virtually invisible as a major force in the world of fashion. But almost single-handedly she has transformed Chloe into the most talked about fashion brand in the world. She has increased sales fivefold. Paris hasn't seen anything like it since the young Yves St Laurent took the city by storm 30 years ago.

When she was appointed it was clear she knew what she had to do. 'I want to bridge the gap between the consumer and the press. At the moment fashion is just sort of stuck in the middle. So far, Stella has stuck to her philosophy of avoiding outrageous and uncommercial catwalk creations. She has kept to the simple philosophy of designing clothes that she or her friends would want to wear. As her best friends are Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell and Yasmin Le Bon, it also brings her big publicity.
