Dolce&Gabbana has revealed its decision to discontinue the use of animal fur in all its Collections starting in 2022.

 

The Italian brand will continue to work with its close partners of master furriers to create eco-fur garments and accessories and a sustainable faux fur alternative that uses recycled and recyclable materials.

 

The new policy is supported by the Humane Society of the United States and Humane Society International, in accordance with the guidelines of the Fur Free Alliance.

 

“Dolce&Gabbana is working towards a more sustainable future that can’t contemplate the use of animal fur. The entire fashion system has a significant social responsibility role that must be promoted and encouraged: we will integrate innovative materials into our Collections and develop environmentally friendly production processes, while at the same time preserve artisans’ jobs and know-how otherwise in danger of fading”. Said Fedele Usai, Group Communication & Marketing Officer at Dolce&Gabbana

 

“We applaud Dolce&Gabbana’s decision to stop using animal fur. Ending the use of fur creates a higher standard for what is acceptable in fashion, and we’re so excited to have Dolce&Gabbana, and so many others, embrace a better, more innovative path forward”. Said PJ Smith, Fashion Policy Director at Humane Society of the United States and Humane Society International.
