Angelina Jolie Investigates Horsehair Handbag
Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, April 9th, 2010 in Actresses, Animal Issues, Fashion.
Angelina Jolie bought a $5,000 horse hair bag, but investigated before saying “yay,” to neigh.
Before she was caught carrying the Akris ecru horsehair handbag, Jolie had her stylist call the company to see if they treated the horses well.
“We told her horses get haircuts just like we do,” Akris designers Albert Kriemler said.
As a spokesperson for the company, nothing but positive responses would be expected.
Girliegirlarmy has a suggestion for the next time Jolie buys a purse:
“A word to the wise Ms. Jolie: Anytime you are buying an animal product, you can be sure as heck it wasn’t just a “haircut.” Next time, choose compassion. Stella McCartney bags are always entirely cruelty free!”
Time now to share your thoughts.
Can an animal derived product ever be cruelty-free?
