pnwhist Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 (edited) Oh the Good ol’ Days. Sheesh, was the mid-80s the height of the furs or what 4 minutes, 3 celebrities showing off their style in their furs and I’m sure was not less than mid-60s there in Hollywood. 24:50 Kim Fields (Facts of Life / Blue Fox) 25:38 Tova Borgnine (Ernest Borgnine’s Wife / Lynx) 28:55 Juice Newton (Singer / Crystal Fox) 33:00 Debbie Allen (Actress / Full Length White Fox) 1:37:43 Beverly Garland (Actress/ Full Length Crystal Fox) https://youtu.be/Q6WhBSBPPDo?si=Rf6xLZYJJUmbfmAQ Edited November 25, 2023 by pnwhist 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pnwhist Posted November 25, 2023 Author Share Posted November 25, 2023 (edited) Messed up on that last one. 1h37m43s is the length of the entire video - that should be 43:20. 7:11 Joan Crosby (?Raccoon /? Beaver) 19:48 Evy Norlund (Lynx) … 54:50 ? (actress / faux?) 56:10 Constance Towers (actress / cross fox?) 57:25 Marcia Cannel wife of Steven J Cannel float (Lynx) 58:00 Actresses from the show Capital ? 58:52 Rip Taylor ( Actor / Coyote) 1:05:50 Ricky Schroder’s company 1:12:30 Talia? (?rabbit / ?faux) 1:15:50 Gold sisters (?faux) I know I missed a couple including the 3 pageant ladies wearing white stoles but I caught the vast majority. If someone told me you’d be seeing a beautiful in a fur every 5 minutes for an hour 15 minutes, I’d be spot on there.

LordTheNightKnight Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 Plus that's not every fur on the video. Makes me wish we could get a copy of the master tapes of the parade and have someone upload the best res version of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALL except for a couple of Twins’ wives/girlfriends were showcasing their FULL-LENGTH furs (as well as many of the players) Your capture of the Golden Age is AMAZING not to also mention how much better the video quality is. Upper Midwest back in the day is legit…if it’s cold - don’t give a rip if it’s for man or woman, give me that fur! Oh have times changed 😞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoyoteFox Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 I've been trying to track down more and more of the fur commercials on Youtube that I saw after Christmas each year as a kid... Both of these videos hit me right where it counts... Many thanks! What an amazing time when every women around seemed to be happy, drunk, glammed-up in pageant makeup, and living the good life in furs! This is what I think about when someone says "go to your happy place"... 🚀 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minkme Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Back in the day, women would wear their fur coats or stole to go out. Yes, i do remember traveling in the winter and seeing ladies wearing their fur coat. You would also see their on the TV news at the airports. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
furs limited Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Sighting furs in the airports used to be one of the added pleasures of travel. Sad that so few "dress up" to fly anymore. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comfy clothes are very popular. But I do suspect it also correlates where you are traveling to and from. And besides, the TSA is only the US. I have never had issues with security and my furs.

LordTheNightKnight Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 The TSA is just one thing. So many other things make flying often feel less formal for people. Plus while a lot of this is limited to the US, our pop culture has spread this attitude elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad that so few "dress up" to fly anymore. While you still see plenty of parkas with very nice fur ruffs, true fur coats are very rare. Last one I saw was a year ago in Billings Montana, a guy wearing a killer lynx jacket. And just as happens when I see a woman in fur, instant erection. And I’m not even gay! 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pnwhist Posted December 2, 2023 Author Share Posted December 2, 2023 (edited) Circling back to the topic of parades, here’s the 1982 Chicago Christmas Parade WITH Mary Ann Childers as host wearing an absolutely gorgeous Blush Fox coat (wow). 32-ish minutes in, the parade route reporter interviews a beatifyl lady wearing a Lynx coat. The broadcast was also partly SPONSORED by Evans Furs so this just asserts just how ubiquitous the Fur industry was part of the Regional consciousness. The clip leaves the commercials in as a Classic Evans fur commercial gets inserted not just once but twice. 🙂 However, with as cold that is should be in Chicago compared to Hollywood this time of year, not as many sightings as my original post…perhaps not as many celebrities?

I think they were likely on loan from Evans as a bit of a product placement incentive. I could be wrong. And I I’m HOPING that’s Mary Ann Childers personal coat! 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pnwhist Posted December 8, 2023 Author Share Posted December 8, 2023 Ohhhhhhhkayyy Got another one for you! Correct me if I’m wrong BUT the hostess is wearing a full-length blush Fox coat. What is it about that type of fox that makes one’s knees buckle when seeing it on a beautiful lady? Is it because it’s not as common as Silver, Red, or Blue and that it seems and deems so appropriate for festivities such as this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
