Another score for the animals!

After receiving thousands of e-mails from compassionate supporters Australian designer Alannah Hill has agreed to stop using rabbit fur in her collections. It takes a very strong person to admit his or her mistakes, learn from them, and move on. Alannah has shown the world her compassion and love for animals, and she is setting a great example for other designers to follow. Thank you, Alannah!

Through undercover video, PETA has discovered fur farms where animals are bludgeoned and beaten until they can be skinned alive. Workers on these farms often stomp on the necks of terrified animals after they are kept in cramped, unsanitary cages for their entire lives. Alannah has joined forward-thinking designers like Stella McCartney, Calvin Klein, Kenneth Cole, and Tommy Hilfiger in ending her support of abuse like this.

This is a major score for us! If you want to take part in activities such as this then join the PETA action group here:

Good on you Alannah Hill!
