London fashion week vows to be fur-free
The article “London fashion week vows to be fur-free” is written by Scarlett Conlon and published by Guardian on the 7th of September 2018 is about the London Fashion Week and about the phase-out of animal fur and leather.
Many designers were asked about their opinions on using leather for their clothes. Every year the number of people who refuse to use animal products is growing. That’s why the British Fashion Council made the announcement that brands would ditch animal fur.
The council’s chief executive, Caroline Rush, said that a lot of brands prefer to “use alternative materials to fur”. Burberry, Gucci, Stella McCartney, Vivienne Westwood, Michael Kors, Versace, and Asos distanced themselves from fur. In addition, some of them would not use feathers, silk, cashmere, and mohair.
An important point is that synthetic faux fur and other alternatives to animal fur negatively impact environment. It would be wise to mention here that Rachael Stott, the senior creative researcher at The Future Laboratory, told “The manufacturing processes used to create these involve toxic chemicals and cause pollution in surrounding rivers”.
On the one hand, designers and world-famous brands should stay away from using animal products because of the cruelty to animals; on the other hand, they have to consider how to do not harm the nature.
1) What materials should people use instead of animal fur and leather?
2) How to promote using alternatives to animal fur?
3) Why do people kill animals instead of cutting fur?
