Wearing fur has always been frowned upon by many people and by organizations like PETA that defend animal rights. But the truth is that, for decades, leather turned into exquisite pieces of clothing has been synonymous with status and elegance. However, due to the constant campaigns and protests against its use, there are many, including countless celebrities, who have decided not to wear them. Even prestigious brands like Michael Kors and Gucci have stopped using leathers in their collections. Now it was Queen Elizabeth's turn.

Why is this queen's decision so relevant? Let us remember that in addition to her long reign, her majesty is well known for her original style, in which vibrant colors, hats and fabulous coats reign. The queen is quite an icon of style, so this is a triumph for those who fight incessantly so that animal skins are no longer used.

According to the book The Other Side of the Coin: The Queen, The Dresser and the Wardrob e, by Angela Kelly, designer and advisor to her majesty, since they began to experience the low temperatures in London any fur coat that the queen has worn It has been made of synthetic leather, something that has been widely applauded, especially by the Humane Society International.

"We are very excited to know that the queen has officially decided not to use fur anymore," said Claire Bass, executive director of the organization. “This is the perfect decision and the reflection of the mentality of the British people, whose great majority detests the skins and do not want anything with it. In our minds this sends a very powerful message that fur is no longer in fashion.”

Bravo!
