FAKE FUR HAS been hit with a bit of controversy recently as a Sky News investigation found that some ‘fake fur’ products sold by major retailers in the UK in fact contain real fur.

The discovery stirred up debate about wearing fake fur – with even this writer saying we should consider giving up wearing fake fur because it encourages the image of any appearance of fur, fake or real, as ‘fashionable’.
