Worker 11811 Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 I've been watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade on TV, this morning, and I've been pleasantly surprised to see several people wearing a little bit of fur on TV! Miranda Cosgrove, from the movie "Despicable Me" wore a nice fur collar. I saw a couple of others but I didn't get a good look because I was running in and out of the living room at the time. So... If y'all see any more fur at the parade, why not report in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worker 11811 Posted November 25, 2010 Author Share Posted November 25, 2010 Update: Kylie Minogue, the pop star from Australia, was on the Homewood Suites float in a nice coat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worker 11811 Posted November 25, 2010 Author Share Posted November 25, 2010 I think one of the guys from "Big Time Rush" wore a fur collar on his leather jacket. Couldn't tell very well. Might have been faux. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worker 11811 Posted November 25, 2010 Author Share Posted November 25, 2010 Kanye West wore a fur vest. Looked like rabbit. I would have expected more from him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worker 11811 Posted November 25, 2010 Author Share Posted November 25, 2010 The Stepperettes baton twirlers wore rhinestones and fur collars on their red and white uniforms but I bet it was fake. I thought Jessica Simpson might have worn some fur but she didn't. It looks like a long mohair coat, though. I'll give her half a point for that.

Worker 11811 Posted November 25, 2010 Author Share Posted November 25, 2010 Joan Rivers, dressed as the Snow Queen wore white fur trim on her costume but, DAMN! It looks like she's had more plastic surgery than Michael Jackson! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worker 11811 Posted November 25, 2010 Author Share Posted November 25, 2010 And, finally... Santa and Mrs. Claus. I don't even think I actually have to report it... It goes without saying. Doesn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Fox Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 I've often heard some fantastic descriptions of furs on the radio when they would interview the special guests as parade masters up front in the parade at Detroit. Unfortunately this year the weather was just not really with them. Sigh! Maybe next! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worker 11811 Posted November 26, 2010 Author Share Posted November 26, 2010 I didn't get to watch the whole parade. I only saw the second half of it. But, in that short time, there were six in the parade people besides Santa and Mrs. Claus who had fur. While most of it was in the form of trims and collars there were a couple fur garments. Kanye West wore a rabbit fur vest and that Australian girl wore what looked like a knitted fur coat. It might have been Australian opossum. I think it's significant that the parade is not being whitewashed anymore. As it *IS* supposed to be a family event, I expect an extra amount of attention to "decorum," as it were, but I did not see as much censorship in terms of political correctness as I have seen in years past. Also, I noticed a few fur items being worn by spectators in the crowd. Even though the streets of NYC are not known for being PC, it is good to see more people wearing fur day to day. Hey! If the weather is with us, we might see a resurgence of fur this season! That would be nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smother Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Too bad Kylie was wearing faux fur. Maybe next year ... http://uktodaynews.com/10724/macy’s-thanksgiving-day-parade-2010-kylie-minogue-jessica-simpson-entertain-crowds/ Smother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worker 11811 Posted November 27, 2010 Author Share Posted November 27, 2010 That's a much better picture than I could see on TV. You're right. It would have been really nice if it was real fur. Just from what I saw on TV I thought it might be Australian Opossum. She is Australian. I figured it was the natural thing for her to wear. Oh, well... As I always say, faux fur makes a good gateway drug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samurman Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 I think Kylie wore a Chanel. This season, Karl Lagerfeld decided to go through the route of "faux furs looking fabulous and very much like real furs" but I must say he failed spectacularly when it came to mimicking real furs... (The fourth shot below, where she is comfortably seated, she looks great and sexy!) Other noteworthy glimpses of fur are: Keri Hilson Rima Fakih Miranda Cosgrove Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
