When The Big Bang Theory star Kaley Cuoco gets together with her stylist and good friend Brad Goreski, it’s nonstop laughs—like “these two should have their own Bravo show” level entertainment. But when it comes to their love of animals, these friends are definitely not joking around.
As leather (i.e., animal skins) creeps onto some runways this season, PETA turned to these two fashion-forward animal advocates to get their take on the top vegan leather trends. From jackets to jumpsuits to sneakers (Kaley was very excited about the sneakers), Brad showcased some fabulous vegan looks that will keep your wardrobe looking fresh and animal-friendly. See the video below for some fun (and compassionate) fashion inspiration:

Quick refresher: We love vegan leather because it’s not made from the skins of dead animals and it can be made from innovative and sustainable materials like pineapple leaves, cork, apple peels, other fruit waste, and recycled plastic.
“Fashion is also always about evolving. It’s always about thinking outside of the box. So when you are making purchases for your fall, winter, spring, summer, all-season wardrobe, please consider vegan and cruelty-free fashion.”
—Brad Goreski to PETA
Behind the scenes at their PETA shoot, Brad and Kaley spoke about everything from their beloved rescued animals to why they’re big champions of #AdoptDontShop and spaying/neutering animal companions They also explained why you will never see them in fur: “I do not wear fur. I do not style with fur,” Brad proudly says in the video. “And I’m really, really happy that the fashion world is starting to phase fur out of their collections at some of the biggest fashion houses in the world, from Versace to Michael Kors to Gucci.” Kaley echoes Brad’s sentiments, adding, “To me, [fur is] the most absurd thing in the world. There is no need for it. There’s so many good materials out there that are vegan and that look gorgeous and that feel delicious.”
