Could this be the end of real fur as fashion? If the last few seasons are any indication, the answer could actually be yes. Especially since the number of stylish faux fur options keeps increasing.
The number of designers vowing to go fur-free has been seemingly snowballing. Everyone from Diane von Furstenberg to Burberry decided to stop using real fur. Joining the ranks of other power players like Gucci, Versace, Armani, Michael Kors and Calvin Klein.
The recent slew of labels dropping fur is certainly remarkable on its own. But the change doesn’t appear to stop with high fashion houses. The British Fashion Council (BFC), the organization that puts on London Fashion Week, officially banned animal fur in any of its runway shows and presentations for Spring 2019. And the Los Angeles City Council voted unanimously for a ban on the sale of all fur products.
Obviously, these moves seem to be signaling a major shift that could have widespread ripple effects for fashion as a whole. What was once considered the epitome of glamour is now looked upon by many as cruel — and unnecessary. There is, in fact, an abundance of fashionable fakes out there right now.
So if you love the look but cringe at the practice, check out these faux fur coats that are ultra chic and animal-friendly.
