After PETA contacted Tory Burch and explained that animals in the exotic-skins industry are crudely bludgeoned with hammers, inflated with water or air, stabbed, and abused in other ways, the mid-luxury women’s fashion label confirmed that it had banned exotic skins! Please always choose fake snake, mock croc, and other animal-friendly options—and help us urge Gucci, Prada, Louis Vuitton, and Hermès to follow Tory Burch’s lead by ending their sale of exotic skins.
