Supermodel Marcus Schenkenburg in Fur War
PETA Turns Heads in Naughty, Nasty Fashion Week Finale
People strolling around the Piazza del Duomo during Milan’s
Fashion Week have been confronted with posters
and leaflets comparing the fur trim on gloves and coats to the
unshaved hair around a woman’s bikini bottoms in a provocative
new PETA campaign launched by supermodel and pro-animal protection
advocate Marcus Schenkenberg, a campaign that U.S. censors won’t
allow.
“Fur Trim: Unattractive” is the theme of PETA’s
new fashion attack, which includes posters and leaflets blitzing Milan,
Paris, London, and other fashion capitals. “Since most young
people are disgusted by the cruelty to animals involved in producing
a whole fur coat, furriers are trying to get their money by sewing
bits and pieces of fur trim onto collars and cuffs,” says Schenkenberg,
who opposes the leghold trap and the fur farm because he loves animals.
He has protested fur in the nude in Times Square and also posed naked
for PETA’s 20th
anniversary ad.
