Twiggy has had enough experience in the modeling industry to know that while supermodels look great in just about anything, fur definitely isn’t one of those clothing items.

The fashion icon from the 60 has teamed up with Animal Defenders International to promote these sentiments at London’s Fashion Week.

Twiggy Disappointed By Fur At London Fashion Show

Twiggy isn’t happy about the use of fur at this year’s London Fashion Week, and cites a new investigation by Animal Defenders International as a reason to boycott both fur and the designers who use it.

“I hope this ADI report helps the fashion industry realise that these poor animals are kept in such terrible and inhumane conditions,” said Twiggy, who’s real name is Lesley Hornby. “Is it really worth this cruelty just for fashion’s sake? I don’t think so.”

The new report details the conditions the animals are kept in at factory farms in Finland, a supplier to the UK.

Twiggy called using 20 foxes or 80 mink to make a single coat “intolerably cruel.”

“I am very sad that some designers are still using real fur when the fake alternatives are so effective and so easily obtainable,” she said.

The Daily Mail says fashion experts are reporting that Peter Pilotto, Caroline Charles, Matthew Williamson and Todd Lynn are all still using fur.

Mariah Carey, Kim Cattrall Donate Old Coats For London Fashion Week

Neighborhood Inaugural Ball

While the effectiveness of throwing flour in a fur wearing celebrity’s face is questionable, PETA anti-fur campaigns do work!

Mariah Carey and Kim Cattrall have graciously donated their old fur coats to the latest campaign, “Fur Is a Drag,” premiering this Friday during London Fashion week.

The coats will be worn by actors in a satirical play about models on the fashion runway. The “models” will be cross dressers and the coats will be accessorized with paint and fur traps.

Ethical designer Stella McCartney will be providing the shoes, which we can only assume will be some pretty large sizes, considering the “queens” have feet bigger than the average lady’s.

Although Mariah and Kim wore fur in the past, it appears they’ve had a change in heart.

The Sex & The City star Kim Cattrall, opened a Harrod’s department store sale last summer, the same store Leona Lewis turned down over a million dollars to perform at because it sells fur.
