Vegetarian Star

Who cares what fur-loving Anna Wintour thinks about style? Fashion publicist Kelly Cutrone is the only one the fashionistas should be listening to.

The star of Bravo’s Kell on Earth and founder of the fashion PR company, People’s Revoltuion, has published a new book, Normal Gets You Nowhere, which slams the industry that brutally traps, raises and kills animals for the skin so others can make a fashion statement.

The girlfriend of actor George Clooney is seen in a few sneak peek photos of her anti-fur advertisement for PETA, where she is posing in front of a blue background wearing nothing more than compassion.

Pamela Anderson is known for giving props to local food when visiting a country, and her recent visit to Tel Aviv was no different.

The actress was welcomed by several animal rights activists carrying tombstones that read, “Thou Shall Not Kill Animals.”

“There are a lot of really great animal rights [activists] here, really good, sympathetic people and I think they’re making a lot of progress even with passing this fur bill, which is a landmark bill and it’s very important for the rest of the world,” Anderson told The Jerusalem Post. “It just seems like everyone is very passionate [in Israel]. There’s not a lot of small talk – people really talk about important things and it’s really incredible the people that I’ve met. We have great conversations.”

Waka Flocka Flame plays nice and naughty activist in two different “Ink Not Mink” ads for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals aimed to discourage people from wearing real fur.

In both the G-rated and NSFW version (shown below), the ad reads, “Be comfortable in your own skin. Let animals wear theirs.”

As a child, Flocka grew up with a lot of animals–dogs, iguanas, lizzards.

Figure skater Johnny Weir has launched into the fashion world by serving as a guest designer at Adrienne Landau’s Fall 2011 show at New York Fashion Week.

The pieces included unisex items featuring fox, rabbit, mink and chinchilla fur.

If it sounds like Weir worships real animal fur, that assumption is right on track. Weir told Stylist he doesn’t believe in fake fur.

Heidi Klum‘s protege and second runner up in Germany’s Next Top Model, Hana Nitsche, grew up in the Czech Republic around many animals, so she can’t imagine wearing any of them.

“We had chickens, pigs and sheep running around–it was almost like a little farm,” Nitsche said.

Nitsche told Fox411 she was incredibly shy for the shoot, despite being a natural in front of the camera.

“I get so nervous and shy, you would not even believe it’s the same girl from the pictures.”

With so many advancements in warm, winter-wear technology and good looking faux furs out there, why would a designer use the real thing?

It’s something that boggles the mind of vegetarian actress Alyssa Milano.

“I’m not sure I understand, how in this day & age, some designers still use real fur in their collections,” Milano wrote on her Twitter account. “I mean, really?”

As a fashion designer herself, Milano knows how to be both chic and cruel-free.

She has a line of women’s sportswear called Fandalia that features tops, hoodies, jackets and pants with logos and designs that show support for major NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL and NCAA sports teams.

It was recently discovered that Urban Outfitters was selling real fur under a faux label.

An unfortunate event, as this store could have been trusted by many animal lovers due to its popularity. It’s even on the Humane Society’s Fur-Free Retailers list.  However, Urban Outfitters has acknowledged the mistake, citing the product vendor’s factory as the source of the labelling issue and insists it remains committed to keeping its pledge not to sell fur items.

Ethical fashion blogger Joshua Katcher, who also blogs at TheDiscerningBruite.com, purchased the item from Urban Outfitters, the “S Loves C by Spring & Clifton Faux Fur Cardigan,” and put the garment through several test that can determine if something is real or fake fur.
