In 2008, clothing company BCBG joined other high-end brands such as Tommy Hilfiger, Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein in a pledge to stop selling fur items. Unfortunately, BCBG has recently violated this promise by selling rabbit fur earmuffs, rabbit-fur ponchos and other fur items in their 2011 holiday fashion line.

Animals raised for fur live in cramped wire cages their entire lives. They are typically killed via cheap methods such as suffocation, neck-breaking, poisoning or anal/vaginal electrocution.
As proven by fur-free high-fashion clothing lines, it is possible for clothing to be fashionable and functional without causing animals to suffer and be killed. Please sign the petition to convince CEO Max Azria to permanently remove fur from the brand's collections.
We, the undersigned, are disappointed with your decision to reintroduce fur into BCBG’s 2011 holiday collection, especially after your 2008 pledge to go fur free.
Animals raised for fur live in cramped wire cages their entire lives. They are typically killed via cheap methods such as suffocation, neck-breaking, poisoning or anal/vaginal electrocution. In light of this cruelty, many celebrities, models and activists, including Michelle Obama, Ellen DeGeneres and Lady Gaga refuse to wear fur.
As proven by fur-free high-fashion clothing lines, it is possible for clothing to be profitable, fashionable and functional without causing animals to suffer and be killed. Please keep your 2008 promise and permanently remove fur from your collections. Thank you for taking the time to read and consider this petition.
