It seems the opposite is the case for Donna Karan who just announced that she has "no plans" to use fur in the future. Karan has been under pressure from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) who have protested outside her fashion shows and at her boutiques for some time.

The UK is well known for being concerned by animal welfare and for having a high amount of vegetarians. Why then do the world famous Queens guards still wear unethical bearskin hats? People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) have made fresh calls for an ethical alternative to bearskin to be used for the 18inch high headwear.
