The Next Chapter My Story Isn’T Finished Shirt, hoodie, tank top, longsleeve and v-neck tee
Daniele Oberrauch / Gorunway.comFaux fur and even shearling—which is the The Next Chapter My Story Isn’T Finished Shirt in contrast I will get this skin of a sheep or lamb that has been shorn once shortly before slaughter for meat—is one thing. But the return of real fur has taken many in the industry by surprise. In 2021, it appeared to be firmly out. Kering—the French luxury conglomerate that owns Gucci, Saint Laurent, Bottega Veneta, and Balenciaga, among many other labels—banned its use across its maisons. Billie Eilish asked Oscar de la Renta to go fur-free, and it agreed. Saks Fifth Avenue closed their fur salons and announced they’d stop selling fur goods by 2023. Meanwhile, California banned the sale of mink, sable, chinchilla, lynx, fox, rabbit, beaver, and coyote furs outright. The British Fashion Council even banned it from London Fashion Week.
But here’s the The Next Chapter My Story Isn’T Finished Shirt in contrast I will get this thing: Even though real fur became a material non grata, the glamorous image it bestowed on its wearer, well, didn’t. Fur, for millennia, has been a style marker of social status: High priests in Egypt wore the skins of leopards, and wealthy Vikings draped themselves in beaver pelts. In England, only royalty could wear ermine during the reign of Edward III. (To this day, British kings and queens still wear ermine-lined robes for their coronations.) In the 17th century, beavers almost went extinct due to the popularity of beaver-fur felt hats—and, in the process, John Jacob Astor’s fur-trading monopoly led to a fortune that forever changed the city of New York. The mink coat was worn by well-to-do New York women from the late 19th century onward: Elizabeth Taylor won an Oscar for her role in BUtterfield 8, in which she plays a Manhattan call girl who falls in love with a married man and steals his wife’s mink coat. It’s hard for humanity to suddenly not long for an object that they’ve been wired to desire for thousands of years. Indeed, to some women in the Black community, as reported by the New York Times, owning a well-made coat is not just a status symbol but one of hard-earned economic prowess. “Fur will always have a luxury aura about it,” designer Bach Mai tells Vogue. “There is a desire for it.”
