Designers have good reason to be shunning fur. Fur farming is a ruthless process in which animals are forced to live in cramped, filthy cages before their skin is torn off in the name of fashion. Living in these conditions – far from their natural environment and with no opportunity to play, jump, run, or do anything else that comes naturally to them – often drives these curious, intelligent animals insane during their short lives. Fighting, self-mutilation, and cannibalism are all too common on fur factory farms.
Numerous PETA exposés have revealed rampant cruelty within the wildlife skins industry. Crocodiles are skinned alive, snakes are impaled with nails and smashed with hammers, and lizards are decapitated – all just for accessories.
London Fashion Week has joined Copenhagen Fashion Week, Helsinki Fashion Week, Melbourne Fashion Week and Stockholm Fashion Week in shunning fur and wild skins. These fashion weeks have forged ahead, with Melbourne and Copenhagen also banning wild feathers, and Helsinki has banned leather. In doing so, they are inspiring creativity with designers using sustainable and animal-friendly vegan materials to create the look of feathers and more without hurting animals.
