The Prada Group Has Finally Said “No” to Fur

As of today, the Prada Group has officially announced that it will no longer use animal fur in any of its designs or products. In partnership with the Fur Free Alliance (FFA), Mui Mui, Prada, Church’s and Car Shoe have committed to fur-free clothing and accessories starting with their SS2020 Women’s wear collections. In a statement, Miuccia Prada expressed that “focusing on innovative materials will allow the company to explore new boundaries of creative design while meeting the demand for ethical products.”

Finally, after years of pressure from animal rights supporters, Prada will be joining the likes of other fur-free luxury brands such as Burberry, Coach, Gucci, and Versace, among others. With educated consumers and changing habits, it’s important that luxury brands are committing to this well awaited change. The new concept of ‘ethical luxury’ is becoming more apparent alongside the need for brands to be more socially responsible.

As of today, The Fur Free Retailer Program includes 1,000 companies, which Fur Free Alliance sees as a positive sign for the future. As their program gains global momentum, fur will no longer be viewed as an acceptable fashion trend.

Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
