Stella VS Ford : The War of Words continues.....

The silent war between Tom Ford and Stella McCartney rages on....Well, its not really a war - more a debate.

McCartney maintains that Ford approached her back in 2001 with an offer to take over Gucci and even went as far as to offer her a trip around the Gucci offices. She said she refused the offer as she had an issue with the use of fur and leather in their collections.

Ford has spoken out to completely deny the rumors and said he never offered her the job.

"It was never a conversation about taking over at Gucci," he told the New York Times. "I think she might have interpreted that at a certain point." He states that he was aware of McCartney's understanding of the subject, but "just never corrected her".

It then got a bit nasty as McCartney wandered in with this : "As if all those exotic skins and corduroy hamster fur were going to turn me on and make me change my entire ethic."

She also added : "He's a lying, cheating... what?" That's the weirdest thing. Why would he take me into an office and show me every dead animal? Oops!" 

We await Ford's response eagerly.....
