Burberry: When Plaid Goes Bad



Düsseldorf, Germany
New York, United States

While searching images in Google, something caught in my eyes, a Burberry pattern painted girl half naked with “blood” spatters on her body holding signs that read, “When Plaid Goes Bad” and the url was written there too: BloodyBurberry.com, so I get into the site and have a look.

Says in the site:
Burberry may be best known for its distinctive plaid, but its use of real fur is making the design house synonymous with cruelty to animals. Burberry continues to use fur in its designs despite the fact that leading clothing retailers like J.Crew, Ann Taylor, Polo Ralph Lauren, and others have pulled fur from their stores forever.

Then the next picture, I found peta.de in the sign they holding. So I guess this thingy is by them. So apparently, the site is talking about “to stop Burberry from making fashionable stuff like coat, hat, and bag out of animal fur.”

Wikipedia: People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) is an animal rights organization. Based in the United States, and with two million members and supporters there and elsewhere, PETA says it is the largest animal rights group in the world.
