Animal activist and vegetarian Brigitte Bardot has never been hesitant to express her opinions about the fur industry.
And during a recent interview when she was asked what she thought about women who wore fur, Bardot responded, “The women who carry fur these days are idiots. Wild animals are bred in small cages where they go crazy because they cannot lead any kind of natural lives. They are imprisoned in concentrated breeding farms. Minks are gassed, foxes are electrocuted… this complete industry is cruel, barbaric and absolutely useless.”
Point taken.
If you’re the compassionate and intelligent type, you’re obviously anti real fur and would probably love to know what stores and companies sell the real deal.
When making your next fashion decisions, refer to the Humane Society of the United State’s list of fur free designers and retailers.
Abercrombie & Fitch, for example, stated in an email in 2007 that all of its furs were fake.
And Ed Hardy even went so far as to state, “As someone who cares about animals, I am deeply offended by and opposed to the inherent cruelty of animal fur.”
So guess that means Jon Gosselin‘s favorite clothing line is safe.
Take a look at the list, carry it in your pocket when making your business decisions and never worry about Brigitte calling you an idiot.
