PETA, an international organization for the humane treatment of animals, wrote on Twitter that Chanel's participation is a milestone victory for animal lovers all over the world, and many rare animals will continue to survive.
When animal fur is no longer used as the mainstream in the fashion world, Hermes' main handbag business really needs fur to increase the sense of luxury. I think Hermes should not be able to give up the handbag business in a short time, which means there is no way to give up making handbags with fur directly. The controversial Hermes crocodile platinum bag was sold at Christie's auction for 3 million yuan. It is said that this crocodile skin is to be peeled off from the crocodile, and the production method is deeply criticized.
Even so, Hermes has to admit that the handbag business accounts for a very large share of Hermes' sales. Some industry analysts said that 65,438+05% of Hermes handbag business is fur, which is very important for Hermes. However, Hermes will also make adjustments to these parts criticized by the Animal Protection Association, and promise that suppliers will abide by the animal protection law and ethics when raising these animals. Hermes will always follow international standards and does not involve illegal activities, which does not mean the opposite. Hermes really can't change immediately in the short term.
