Collab Ho: PETA, Stella McCartney and Viv Westwood

This does not equal one of these!!!

Collab Ho: PETA, Stella McCartney and Viv Westwood

PETA has gone overboard again, this time requesting that the traditional bearskin hats worn by guards at Buckingham Palace be changed to fake fur. According to a spokesperson, “Most people think it’s fake fur and when they find out it’s real and it takes one bear to make a hat, they are appalled,” says Robbie LeBlanc, PeTA’s director for Europe.

Okay, it does not take an entire bear to make one hat, this is a ridiculous statement…not that I am for skinning bears and using them for hats. So they had to go and find big name designers to create faux fur hats to switch out for the old ones (which I’m sure will sell for tons of money), and of course, who do they pick, Stella McCartney and Vivienne Westwood.

As much as I love the idea of these two working side by side (and NOT on this project), not quite sure why this is such a big deal, after all, they are just hats (made according to tradition), right?
