EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases all the animals whose pelts were highly favored by the fashion industry in 1908. From the majestic American Wolf to the adorable Angora Rabbit, each animal represented played a significant role in shaping the trends of that era. The Brown Bear, Skunk, and Canadian Wolf exude luxury and sophistication, while the playful Coyote and Grey Squirrel add a touch of whimsy to any ensemble.
The Indian Wild Cat and Persian Cat bring an exotic flair to the mix, while creatures like the Siberian Wolf and Kangaroo offer a unique twist on traditional fur garments. The variety of species featured - from monkeys to otters to badgers - highlights the diverse sources of inspiration for designers during this time period.
As we reflect on this snapshot of history, it serves as a reminder of how attitudes towards fur have evolved over time. While these pelts were once prized possessions in high fashion circles, today there is a growing awareness about ethical considerations surrounding their use. This image stands as both a testament to past practices and a call to action for more sustainable choices in modern fashion.
