samurman Posted January 11, 2012 Author Posted January 11, 2012 There is a subsection called "Fur Fanatics"!!! http://nymag.com/fashion/fashionables/fur-fanatics-2012-1/index1.html Check out the story of Peter Hayn, 77, Retired Artist: “At my prime, I had about eighteen furs; now I have about twelve left: a fisher, a black llama, a blue iris mink, a coyote, a sable, and a couple of natural minks. I have no explanation as to how I slipped into it, other than that I was temporarily insane: I was sort of addicted to fur. I spent a considerable amount of money over a period of about twenty years. Other people travel. I bought one after another, and now I am stuck with them. Now I can wrap my ailing body in furs.” I am sure "black llama" is a spelling mistake by the magazine editor, what he meant was Blackglama!
Guest Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 SUPER interesting!! I know a lot of top fashion designers are currently including FUR in their collections - like Givenchy & Gucci!
FurLoverinFL Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 My favorite from this article.... "Beitressa: 'My grandma bought this for me. For years I resisted but finally gave in. She used to say no decent man would marry a woman who didn’t own a fur.'" AMEN!!! FLinFL
White Fox Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 I noticed that one too. And she looks fantastic in that jacket doesn't she!
Worker 11811 Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 ... She used to say no decent man would marry a woman who didn’t own a fur.'"... No decent woman should marry a man who doesn't buy her a fur! The way I grew up, it was the husband's obligation to get his wife at least one diamond ring and at least one fur coat. That's just the way it was. (P.S.: I'm covered on both those counts. )
