    At a time when top designers and major fashion labels are moving away from fur and animals’ skins, it’s baffling that Prada is still making shoes and bags from the bodies of ostriches whose throats are sliced open and crocodiles who are skinned alive. Truly innovative designers create looks that kill–without killing anyone.

  2. Allison Cares says:

    No animal, whether exotic or not, should be used to make handbags, shoes, or any other “fashionable” item. With countless vegan alternatives available today, there is no reason why animals should be needlessly slaughtered. Let’s stop this massacre on animals and turn a new page in the fashion industry by making fashion vegan.

    I don’t wear animal skins. It’s cruel and unnecessary. There are tons of vegan options available. Compassion never goes out of fashion.
