Faux Fur

[edit]

In todays society, the use of faux fur comes to questioning. Due to the recent ban on the use of real fur in California[1], people are thinking about the use of faux fur. Fake fur, also called faux fur, is a pile fabric engineered to have the appearance and warmth of animal fur.[2] Faux Fur is synthetic material that is man made by blends of acrylics and other materials.Faux fur is often used to replace the heavy use of real fur in the fashion industry. Faux fur is also known as vegan fur. Vegan clothing has increasingly come in demand. Vegan clothing is a substitute to real animal fur use. These vegan fur products can consist of apparel like Jackets and Coats.[3] Peta has contributed and supported the ideal use of faux fur since their 1992 campaign “Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur”.

Process of Making Faux Fur

[edit]

The beginning process of making Faux Fur includes sewing synthetic fibers that are then sewn the back of polyester. The appearances of the fur is due to the quality of the fibers that are used in the process. Machines that are used helped develop the quality and also this is how it creates a certain look like mink or leopard [4].
