Fake Fur Receives
Royal Approval

A


t the age of 93,
Queen Elizabeth
II has made a
notable sartorial
statement by removing
real fur from her day-to-
day wardrobe.
The move was revealed
by her senior dresser,
Angela Kelly. “If Her
Majesty is to attend
an engagement in
particularly cold weather,
fake fur will be used to
make sure she stays
warm,” she says.
The Queen’s ceremonial
robes will remain with
their fur intact and she
won’t get rid of anything
she already owns.
Nonetheless, Claire
Bass, of animal charity,
Humane Society
International, says the
decision will send “a
powerful message that fur
is firmly out of fashion.”
