The Milan-based fashion house\u2019s newly announced statement follows a similar decision by Hugo Boss, which also officially denounced fur in July.<\/p>\n<p>Although it\u2019s too early to predict if other international fashion houses will also start prohibiting the usage of fur in their creations, it certainly seems to be a trend.<\/p>\n<p>For fashionistas who are anti-fur, there are definitely a number of faux fur alternatives on the market. As brands like Armani and Boss say no to fur, we can probably expect to see a rise in faux pieces, both on the runways and on the sidewalks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While fur is often spotted on the global runways, a number of labels are gradually embracing a fur-free stance.
