Born Free USA here states some fast facts about the farming of genuine fur that I have covered. Concluding this critical discussion I have identified my thoughts and opinion toward the matter, with reference to relevant articles and organizations. In today’s society people are aware of fur and the increasing issue that surrounds it, whether it be the exploitation of animals, demand from fashion houses, and environmental factors that are forever growing. I believe that genuine fur should not be an option for designers to use at their disposal, as I doubt they realize the harmful effect it has on animals and people who believe in animal rights. There are so many other resources we can use today, as technology gives the option to create almost anything. Society needs to put more emphasis on faux fur being fashion forward, than genuine fur.
