Karl Lagerfeld Bans Exotic-Animal Skins
Iconic brand Karl Lagerfeld banned exotic-animal skins after learning from PETA that workers in the exotic-skins industry nail fully conscious snakes to trees and cut open their bodies, ostriches are electrically stunned and their throats are slit, and metal rods are jammed down crocodiles’ spines while they’re still alive. Karl Lagerfeld joins Jil Sander, Chanel, Brooks Brothers, Diane von Furstenberg, Victoria Beckham, and many others that have made the compassionate decision to stop using exotic-animal skins in their designs. Please help us urge LVMH to follow their lead.
