.

Det är viktigt att tänka på var materialen i våra kläder kommer ifrån!! Men de flesta människor tänker överhuvudtaget inte på det. Köp aldrig kläder från en designer som använder sig av äkta skinn, päls, dun m.m. Det finns alltid tortyr inblandat i sådana tillverkningar. I Kina (världens största pälstillverkning) har inte djuren några rättigheter. Absolut inga.

Vill du göra något för djurens väl, gå in på DENNA länk.

Därför ska jag nu göra det "lätt" för er och rada upp alla designer som INTE behöver bojkottas. Alla dessa designer har med egna ord bedyrat att de EJ använder sig av äkta päls! (Sorry, jag vet att den är lång...)
