A note about our policy on selling animal fur:We understand that there are many views on the selling of fur. While we don't support the production of new fur products and don't encourage the increase in demand for new fur products, we do feel that the fur that has already been produced and is at least 10 years old, would be better re-used by clients than added to a landfill. We believe, whenever possible, in the re-purposing of ALL clothing as opposed to the disposal of it. We also encourage the re-use and re-design of fur that has already been sold in the marketplace and believe that this is the most ethical way to deal with the problem.
In order to best determine fit, measure yourself or a garment of a similar style that fits you well. Compare those measurements to those on the item description.
