LONDON — Some of Britain’s leading fashion designers are urging British Prime Minister Boris Johnson to make the UK the world's first country to ban the sale of products containing real animal fur.
Stella McCartney, Vivienne Westwood, Katharine Hamnett, Christopher Raeburn, Erdem Moralioglu, Helen Moore and Hannah Weiland have written a joint letter calling on Johnson to act.
They cite a "shared belief that fashion, driven by consumers and enabled by innovation, is evolving to make animal fur obsolete, as more and more luxury fashion designers and high street retailers eliminate it from their collections".
