will people be able to tell my fur vest is real?


Question Posted Friday December 9 2011, 8:26 pm

my mother has lots of fur coats & such, and i just found them. there is this one white rabbit fur vest, & i know the fake fur vests are in right now, and i really like it.

i want to wear it, but i'm afraid people will be able to tel its real & like beat me.

i know the mink ones & fox ones look obviously real, but i also don't think many people will expect a 19 year old girl to have real fur vest either..? right?

Why not? You'll be the one wearing it not them. You can't avoid to hear nasty things but don't mind them. It's your life and style. You can check out www.lifo.com. It is a fun site for girls that has a virtual closet feature which allows you to upload your own personal closet and create outfits you can share with friends.

Very few people will be able to tell.

But here is the trick: the people who really care, are good at spotting the difference. I can almost always spot the difference, and if I can touch it or get close enough to smell it, it's obvious that it is real.

It's unlikely anyone will beat you - but you'll likely get nasty comment or two. That's just sort of the risk you take when you wear fur. Many people will back off quite quickly if you tell them that it is vintage and you inherited it, others won't care that it's vintage.

Honestly, depending on where you live and the people around you, it might be very likely that someone will comment if you wear fur. People who feel strongly about fur are good at telling the difference between the fake and the real. The real has oils in it the fake just never does - plus it effects the way the garment is put togeather.

I'd recommend you be careful where you wear it. I inherited a fur coat from my mother that I really cherish, but I only wear it to the opera and to family gatherings. Even still, I live in a very big, liberal city, and I've had people make some nasty comments on the street

no, they probably wont be able to. if they see it they will most likely expect it to be fake like you said. :) If someone feels it and is like "is it real?" simply say "no, but it feels real right?" haha. hope this helped! <3
