In an attempt to post only on those designers who chose not to use fur in their Fall 2008 collections, today's lineup for NYFW has left me with few choices for picking non-fur favorites. There is an overwhelming use of fur in the shows. The collections of Oscar de la Renta, Carolina Herrera, Chris Benz, Malo, and Peter Som are all plagued with fur collars, coats, vests, and trim. Disclaimer: I have not been able to varify that the fur pictured is real & not faux in some cases. But, I can verify that Carolina Herrera used mink & swakara and Oscar chose sable & fox to adorn his pieces, per style.com.
Is fur back in vogue? So sad.
