Definitely a glamorous season

This season's key word: glamour. Fur, exotic skins and feathers adorned most of this fall's collections as if designers wilfully ignored PETA campaigns.

Talking about fur it seems that the global warming determined designers to shorten the length: forget about Cruella’s look (that some old ladies still think is the expression of supreme elegance).

Now it’s all about subtle trimming and short coats like fur boleros, furry vests and short/three quarter/long sleeve cropped jacket. This younger look is accentuated by sporty details such as zippers, bold colors and hoods.

The good news is that eco-friendly faux fur looks as fabulous as the real deal and these four chic faux-fur coats are the proof to that.
