Does she test her makeup on her angora rabbits before she pull their fur off for her sweaters?

[goshipgurl.livejournal.com]

what? really?

[allsugarfree.livejournal.com]

She exploit animals for her clothing, so I just wanted to know if she does the same for her makeup.

Angora fur can be harvested humanly, just like the wool of a sheep.

Edit:Just saying,she could be getting it on the up and up.

This is one of the sweaters where angora is listed in the materials. I don't know if any of the other contains any bc one fur sweater is enough for me to boicott the brand.

It looks bad either way. Since she is CEO and chief designer, if she doesn't know where her materials are sourced, then what sort of chief designer is she. If she does know and doesn't care, equally terrible

brb going to hug my rabbits :|

[allsugarfree.livejournal.com]

Better be fast, Sica's coming for them all, lol.

But I hope you gave you rabbits a long hug. I lost mine last week and I miss her so much:(

[lazmy.livejournal.com]

late but i'm so sorry for your loss :(

[a-cheshire-grin.livejournal.com]

I hope you care as much about child labour and cheap labour as you care about animal testing. If you buy at H&M, Zara and other "fast fashion" brands, probably not!

Also funny how nobody ever gets outraged on here when idols (including SNSD) wear leather and fur.

I remember you commented that exact thing the last time I called out Jess for willingly being an ignorant prick and supporting animal cruilty and torture. It's the same stupid shit vegans get because they "probably step on ants". Do I really need to include every issue concerning the fashion industry in my comment just bc I'm calling her out on one of them? And since you are so interested in my life, no I don't buy from brands that have been proven to use child labour and inhumane working places.

Is Jessica supporting child labour and cheap labour too btw? Wouldn't be suprising.

[a-cheshire-grin.livejournal.com]

lol...what? So it's okay for you to call her out for animal cruelty, but I'm not allowed to remark that the fashion industry as a whole is freaking shady and has many more problems? And comparing my comment about concerns for child/cheap labour with "stepping on ants". Wow...

Is Jessica supporting child labour and cheap labour too btw? Wouldn't be suprising.

B&E sunglasses and clothes are manufactured in Italy. That's the only thing I can tell you.

[allsugarfree.livejournal.com]

Child labour had nothing to do with my comment so why did you feel the need to reply that to me? It's great that you seem passionate about child labour, but it looked like you labeled me a hypocrite.

I'm sorry if I sounded really defensive and rude, that was not my intention, but I get comments like that all the time. Like, if I mention how polluting animal agriculture is, all I get is passive aggressive comments on how my lunch box is made out of plastic, lol.

Does B&E list where they get their fabric from? I'm guessing the products are onlly sewn in Italy?

[a-cheshire-grin.livejournal.com]

It's fine, you didn't sound rude, you sounded...passionate. I also hate animal cruelty. It's just a sad fact that in Japan (also Korea and China what my friends from these countries tell me) wearing real fur and leather is still seen as a kind of "status symbol". So while I was dissapointed to see that B&E has a sweater made out of angora in their collection, it didn't really shock me that much (given the fact that Sica has worn real fur and leather before).

Your comment just suprise me, because it didn't really have anything to do with the post, but I get where it was coming from!

I can't find anything about it on their website, but B&E/Sica has participated in a campaign against "Child Abuse", so it seems that keeping children save is important to them. (http://blancgroup.com/pages/news)

[allsugarfree.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the link to the campaign! Hope she/B&E gets even more involved in charities like this! I don't really follow her anymore so I hop you/someone else make a post about it if that happens:)

[a-cheshire-grin.livejournal.com]

I'll do my best! ^.^

[frankoceans.livejournal.com]

thank you for your comments!

[allsugarfree.livejournal.com]

I don't know about other Idols, but the last thread consurning Jessicas fur clothing did mention SNSD members (Seo, Jess and Soo I think) wearing fur.

[goshipgurl.livejournal.com]

need to check the ingredients before i can judge

[xxhna.livejournal.com]

i just realized that b&e's type face looks similar to chanel's. except for the A.

[steelsigns.livejournal.com]

wow she's really doing a lot huh

Riding off her fans' support and her name being out there from being an SNSD member - pretty sure it's not because her B&E has an established brand identity. The brand is her, and because of that - she can sell anything she wants

[a-cheshire-grin.livejournal.com]

Riding off her fans' support and her name being out there from being an SNSD member...

lol what...so she worked like a maniac for almost eight years to help make SNSD famous and get SM that money and after they kicked her out it's suddenly her fault that people know her as "Jessica from SNSD"? Oh wow...

[frankoceans.livejournal.com]

[frankoceans.livejournal.com]

as if other snsd members don't sell their stuff based on the brand and name they built as well
