On Wednesday, 34-year-old Irina went out again wearing a fur coat. This time she wore a black corset, a pair of oversized Levi's Chrome Hearts jeans, and a pair of knee-length combat boots.

In this year’s leather products, we have come into contact with the concept of “vegan leather”, which means that the leather that does not contain animal ingredients and does not carry any animal footprints (including animal testing) in the manufacturing materials and production process is also the current major The leather material used more frequently by brands.

vegan leather is actually not 100% environmentally friendly.
vegan leather sounds like it has nothing to do with "meat". It is very vegan, but it is not 100% eco-friendly because of the process of decomposing materials and producing leather. It also releases harmful chemicals and pollutes the environment; but because the production of animal leather will harm animals, the prevalence of animal husbandry will increase the amount of felling of trees, and emit more greenhouse gases, which will increase climate warming. In comparison, vegan leather is indeed a more humane and environmentally friendly choice, especially imitation leather made from recycled materials.
Most high-street brands advocate the use of imitation leather, including London brand Nanushka, Korean brand Andersson Bell and Low Classic, etc. Imitation leather long coats, shirts, dresses, etc. are all equipped with simple and generous designs, which can almost be fake.

Mexican entrepreneurs Adrián López Velarde and Marte Cázarez have launched the first organic vegan leather "Desserto" made entirely of cacti, which can be used for at least 10 years. The industry's vegan leather made from banana stems, green tea, sugar, grapes, etc. is also under study. It is hoped that it can gradually replace real leather or even imitation leather, which can be decomposed naturally, and at the same time promote people's environmental awareness and protect the earth.
