Stella McCartney has made a name for herself outside of her famous dad.
And the 41-year-old designing superstar has a pretty fantastic life.
McCartney has a London townhouse and a gorgeous country home. She counts celebrities like Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow among her best friends.
She also dresses some of the most famous women in the world.
While her big name put her at an advantage, there's no doubt McCartney is very artistic and talented. You won't believe how much money she's made on her own.
She replaced Karl Lagerfeld at Chloe when she was only 25.
The claws came out.
"I think they should have taken a big name,” Lagerfeld snipped at the time. “They did, but in music, not fashion.”
While McCartney's designs were criticized at first, she's come around.
Her best friend is Gwyneth Paltrow.
Paltrow said she appreciates Stella's tough, "ghetto" side. The two have been friends for decades, but have bonded even more closely since their children are the same age.
Paltrow is also married to a Brit–Coldplay singer Chris Martin–and lives close to McCartney.
She's also good friends with Madonna.
The two are often photographed around London together. McCartney also designed Madonna's wedding gown when she married Guy Ritchie in Scotland.
