Faux, Real ? Get Real !
Rihanna's last appearance on the red carpet was a curious personification of where we are today with fur.
While the XL hat was clearly faux, the coat was a vintage creation from Lacroix's F-W 2002 fashion show. Probably fox fur heavily dyed with chemicals giving it a very...synthetic aspect.
Not biodegradable for sure. But it's vintage.
At Ecopel, more than ever we believe imitation is conservation and faux fur will always be the compassionate choice.
But today, imitation also means innovation with new options gaining traction including 100% biobased, faux dyed without water and even keratin or vegetal furs in the pipe line.
