Making Fashion Cruelty-Free

Fashion industry icon Michael Kors has joined the list of designers who will no longer use fur in their fashion lines.  Kors follows on the recent announcement by the Italian industry giant Gucci that they will begin phasing out fur starting in the spring of 2018.  Unfortunately, fur products are sometimes mislabeled as fur-free.

Banning Fur in Berkeley

On March 14, 2017, the Berkeley City Council will discuss a proposal to ban the sale of fur in the city. The proposal is the result of a petition started by the group Berkeley Coalition for Animals (BCA), a volunteer-led coalition addressing issues of animal rights legislation, business, and culture.
