Stella McCartney participated in a family tradition this week when she joined the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire. In fact, Stella, who became an "officer" of the Order, one-upped her dad, Paul McCartney, who is only a "member." The order of chivalry was created in 1917 by King George V to recognize both military members and civilians who have served Britain, and today it is awarded by the queen on the advice of the government. Stella, who designed Team GB's uniforms for the London Olympics, was recognized for service in the fashion industry, and in 2003, David Beckham was recognized for his service to football.

Stella won't be called Dame Stella, however, as the honorifics "Sir" and "Dame" are reserved for the higher ranks of the order, whose members have included Dame Elizabeth Taylor and Dame Helen Mirren. But don't be confused: Sir Elton John, Sir Mick Jagger, and Sir Paul McCartney, all members of the Order, do not hold a high rank. Instead, they got their "Sir" titles when they later became a "Knight Bachelor," which is not part of the Order. Not everyone considers joining the Order of the British Empire an honor, though. David Bowie declined the award, saying, "It's not what I spent my life working for," and author C.S. Lewis also passed.

Now that you're more familiar with this British tradition, check out famous faces who have been initiated now.

Stella McCartney may have made headlines for being made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire today, but she's not the first person in fashion who's made it onto Queen Elizabeth's annual New Year Honors List.

In fact, there's a rather large handful of designers, educators, and other people in the industry who've made the list. From Alexander McQueen's Sarah Burton to Fashion East's Lulu Kennedy, take a look at all the most honorable people in fashion here in the gallery.

Anne Hathaway is a huge fan of Stella McCartney bags. In fact, she's been spotted with four different styles. Take into consideration that both the actress and McCartney's bags are vegan, and this fashion union totally makes sense. But what makes it fun is to see how Hathaway styles her beloved bag stash with everything from mixed prints to one fresh all-white ensemble. Now if that's not a major (bag) crush, we don't know what is. Step inside to get a closer look at Hathaway's Stella McCartney bag collection and shop exact pieces for yourself.
