2nd Annual Fur Free Fashion Competition

Presenting the 2010 2nd Annual fffashion design contest winners!

Born Free USA and leading environmental publication, E Magazine, are proud to announce the 2010 winners of the 2nd Annual fffashion — the fur free fashion design competition promoting the ethical and environmental benefits of foregoing fur fashions.

Winners were chosen by a celebrity panel of judges including eco-model and Discovery Channel Planet Green host, Summer Rayne Oakes; lifestyle icon Sophie Uliano, author of New York Times bestselling book Gorgeously Green; and E Magazine editor Brita Belli. New this year is the "Green Award" judged by Josh Dorfman, author and television host of The Lazy Environmentalist TV series airing on Sundance Channel's The Green.

Entries from all designers (student and independent) were judged together and all were eligible for the First place, Second place, and Third place awards and prize packages. The highest ranking design by a student designer was also awarded recognition and the special Green Award was judged by Dorfman.

Being fur-free is both socially and environmentally responsible. Not only is the use of fur unconscionable in this progressive day and age, it is damaging to our wildlife, our ecosystems and people who work in fur processing factories. In short, it's impossible to design with fur, sell fur, or wear fur, and claim one is anything close to being 'green'.
