fake fur
Fake fur, also called fun fur or faux fur, is any material made of synthetic fibers designed to resemble fur, normally as part of a piece of clothing. It was first introduced in 1929〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= Fake fur )〕 and has been commercially available since the 1950s, but its increasing popularity has been credited to its promotion by animal rights and animal welfare organizations which claim that it is an animal-friendly alternative to traditional fur clothing.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title =Definition from the Textile and Apparel Industries )〕
== Uses ==
Faux fur is not only used in clothing, but also for stuffed animals, fashion accessory and home decorations like pillows, bedding and throws. It is also sometimes used for craft projects because it can be sewn on a sewing machine. Real fur is generally thicker and requires a special machine, hand sewing or an awl to sew it.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=how to sew torn mink coat? )〕 Lately, fake fur has been increasingly used in the mainstream teen fashion, for example the stores Abercrombie & Fitch and American Eagle〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Women's AE Downtown Bomber - American Eagle Outfitters )〕 use it for trapper hats and jackets. In the Soviet, and now Russian Army, ''fish fur'' is used as a slang term for the fake fur used on winter clothing and the ubiquitous ushanka hats. Similarly, fashion design labels such as Ralph Lauren and Chanel have promoted the use of fake fur in their collections.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title =Search for faux fur on Ralph Lauren site )〕
