Stella McCartney Could Design Queen’s Guards Faux Bear Skin Hats
Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, July 21st, 2010 in Animal Issues, Fashion.
Stella McCartney is proving once again she’s an ethical leader in the fashion industry by proposing to design the hats worn by the Queen’s guards, according to The Telegraph. The hats are traditionally made from bearskin, but PETA is set to meet with Peter Luff, minister for defence equipment, support and technology, to discuss a faux alternative they say meets rigorous standards for waterproofing and warmth.
The technology that could make this happen is called Bear28.
“I’ve been working on this with Peta for a few years now and am really happy with the final product, as I hope the MoD will be when they see it,” McCartney said.
