To fur or not to fur

Sometimes I’ll can’t believe that in the modern times we live in today fur is still such a big discussing point. 

Don’t get me wrong I’m also a big animal lover. I love to pet dogs and play with, especially the weird and ugly ones. But I also adore nice fabrics like silk, wool, leather and fur. It feels so riche and soft almost like you can hug your own skin with it. The fabric an designer chooses can really make or break an design for me.

We all know it, you look at a H&M advertising poster and think “ow.. wauw thats such a nice jacket” and then you’l come in to the store and see the real thing and think “ hmm... that colour is very different than I’ll thought it wouldn't be and the fabric doesn’t look as thick and gorgeous as it on the poster looks”.

Here you can see how important good fabrics are for clothes.

So what is my point, look at fur as an riche warm beautiful fabric that gives it designs the texture that the need and not as only the skin of an animal.
