Introduction

The fashion industry is among the fastest developing major industries worldwide,

complementing the rapidly expanding technology sector. Garments made of animal fur are often

costly, and an individual wearing it is considered a higher social status. This article sparks debate

on the use of fur in the fashion industry; thus, we see different opinions from designers, activists,

and celebrities in support or against it. Other designers like Jason Wu believed that fur is back to

fashion, while other brands like Calvin Klein were against the idea of killing animals to use their

fur to make luxurious items. Although several individuals appear to be keen to market and

advertise it, no one wants to discuss it.

Jason Wu

Jason Wu, a designer, believed that fur is not a political thing but simply a material, such

as wool or silk, which serves as a blank palette for his creativity. Jason was always looking for

old and iconic products to reinterpret through his generation's views. He says that fur has become

an all-season fabric thanks to modern procedures for dyeing, trimming, and shearing to modify

the texture. He shared his spring 2016 vacation collection, for instance, offers a pink fox fur coat

made of sheared fox and natural fox. Jason believes that fur is going to last for the generation to

come.

The Fur Council of Canada

The Fur Council of Canada promoted the use of fur products in the fashion industry. The

Council has a site named furisgreen.com that supports the idea that sustainable basis fur

coming from farm-raised mink or untamed beaver is a renewable product, but petroleum, the

base of artificial fur, is not. From the article, the Council had also worked to increase openness in

sourcing. This notion gained ground in 2011 when President Obama approved the Truth in Fur
