PLEASE could you add bloodymulberry.com to bloodyburberry.com ? Their collection on 19th Feb 2012 featured fur, fur and more fur. Emma Hill is a disgusting fur-fetishist.

some one argues that the animals are for the pleasures, eating, killings and entertaining for the human. every instincts are not like pains, killings, torturing. every one fears with pains. it is our moral duty to preserve , protect them for survival of nature. we are the lovers of peace, non violence. so we must protect them.

I think it depends on the life of the animal and the usage of the animal and the way it is killed. I think its o.k to kill animals for food and clothing however, they do not deserve to spend their lives caged, tortured, slowly slaughtered such as being skinned alive. I dont understand these people. Do they not realise the suffering they are causing? I think they should look up what peoples' accounts of hell are like (possibly on youtube etc) and they will find that it is pretty similar and they are on an express train there. I believe in justice and I have faith that sooner or later justice will be done. May the Lord have mercy on them.

Faux fur is the only fur I would ever wear!

I am all for not using animal products. But the more I try to switch to somethong else the more I see that most alternatives are also harmful to our environment, like anything made from plastics. I am at a loss of what to do and where to find products that are cruelty free and environmentally friendly.

Alice: Ultimately, were the sheep on the farm you grew up on sold for meat? That's one of the main reasons why there's a problem with it. I don't think that the wool they provide is valuable enough to support the maintenance of the animal on a commercial farm. Most vegans choose not to use any products that are derived in any capacity from animals, so it's part of the vegan belief system. Though I'm not completely vegetarian, I am striving to avoid all unnecessary animal products like wool, leather, etc. Little by little I'm trying to lessen my cruelty footprint and giving up stuff I don't really need has been far easier than one might think.

Why is it that vegans get so high and mighty about some things (no real offence)? People who wear leather may not have a fashion victim attitude; they may just prefer it; and it IS their choice. Also; what is wrong with wool? I grew up on a sheep farm, they just mooch around all day happy as you like eating grass; and come summer time (when it gets hot anyway) their winter coat is shaved off, like a hair cut.

Question: Obviously there are a lot of faux-fur products in the shops at the moment, and most items I've seen are labelled as being made from polyester and/or acrylic only (with no mention of real fur) - is it possible that they could still contain real fur or would this be mentioned on the label? Thanks :-)

Hey Peta, please target that gruesome magazine Marie Claire. I flicked through a copy at the dentist and was sickened to see every type of fur, even exotics, on every third page being promoted via advertising and articles. It was impossible to tell if they were fake fur or real. Doesn't matter, I hate the faux fur equally because the Chinese make copies of faux fashions with real dead animals. Jen, I agree with what you say, but sadly those people who slavishly follow fashion to get ahead will not succeed in the long run because they lack a strong sense of identity, a strong sense of self and a strong sense of individuality. It takes a strong personality to succeed in this cut throat world.

fashion is a big part of society...you can't change everyone's style or taste. But making products that can be worn to each person's style without harming animals is to me a very good solution. You can look at it as promoting fur but if you were to have more people...designers...celebrities...etc...promote that it is 100% faux then i think more people would have an acceptance or gain an appeal for faux. It may take a while but one day i hope faux will be a bigger seller than real animal products. I'm a girl...i like fashion...but life doesn't have to be just black or white...100% faux is a good "in between" for me. I don't want to promote wearing real fur. i want to promote how awesomely fantastic fuax is. "100% fuax" not that fake faux stuff made from cats and dogs or rabbits...
