Faux Animal Print

Posted by lifeinparis Posted on: 11/08/08

Faux Animal Print

Animal rights activist can breath easy. Faux animal prints have become the latest trend in Paris.  Let me reiterate, it's not real animal skins. Rather it's imitation animal prints. 10 years ago, these loud and wild faux prints used to seem cheap, implying one couldn't buy the real thing. Well now they are the perfect accent to the most sophisticated Parisian dark fall outifts. Scarfs, shirts, skirts, even purses are made of these savage designs. Leopard, tiger, cheetah, a combination of all of the above. Even faux alligator skin. Anything goes. As long as no animal gave their life for the fashion, it's hip with Paris fashionista's right now. This classic look that hasn't been cool since Animal rights came on the scene has made a comeback this fall.  The 2008 version has all the historical status that animal pelts imply, whilst being environmentally conscious. The modern Paris woman is showing her status whilst remaining kind to animals. She's untamed whilst being socially responsible. Bravo!
