Unreal Fur: A Luxurious Alternative

It’s no secret that I greatly value animals and am conscious of my personal impact on their wellbeing, which is why I’ll take faux-fur over real fur any day. Thankfully, in recent years, the demand for faux fur has increased as consumers are becoming more conscious about where there clothes come from and how they are made. And, thanks to modern technology, faux fur can now be produced with the same level of softness, quality, and warmth as the real thing.

Vaute Couture – Animal Friendly Fashion

We have mad love for our furry friends so we were excited to hear about Vaute Couture – a company that produces compassionate animal friendly apparel and accessories that appeals to vegans and non-vegans. An animal lover since birth designer/founder Leanne Mai-ly Hilgart embarked on a mission to take animals out of the fashion equation and create a winter dress coat that was warm, chic, and vegan. This passion led to the birth of Vaute ("Haute" with a "V" for Vegan, pronounced “Vote”) Couture - the world’s first all-vegan fashion brand. Leanne makes her beautiful creations by using eco-conscious fabrics made from a blend of organics and recycled fibers. The end result is a super warm, water-resistant, wind-proof garment that has the look and feel of a wool coat with the warmth and protection of a ski coat and spares sheep from painful mutilations on farms.
