With eco-fashion trending so quickly into people’s wardrobes, Fur Fashion Week looks like a controversy to be sure. This year’s Fur Fashion Week, organized by FICA (Fur Information Council of America) will take place over the next two days, May 13 – 14, at which time, there will be 17 presentations, including those by Michael Kors, Bill Blass, Ralph Rucci, Isaac Mizrahi, Peter Som, Zandra Rhodes, Zac Posen, Angel Sanchez, Carmen Mark Valvo, and Kati Stern for Venexiana. We don’t know whether it will draw the attention of PETA and eco fashion defenders, but many designers used fur in their Fall/Winter 2008 collections. That makes a difference.
