PETA is never shy about being out-spoken, even when it comes to some of the biggest celebrities around. They recently issued a letter to Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes asking them to please not dress Suri Cruise in fur.
Here are some snippets from the letter:
“Greetings from PETA, where we’ve always admired your fur-free personal style. Because you are among the most highly visible wearers of Giorgio Armani, we are obliged to alert you to a distressing situation that has arisen with the company.
“Please be vigilant about any packages that Armani sends for Suri, as they could include bunny fur from his toddler lines. We imagine that Suri, like other children, has a natural affinity for animals, which is why we find it shocking that Armani is not only breaking his fur-free promise but also trying to lure children into fashion derived from skinned rabbits.
Read the rest below the cut.
“A little more than a year ago, Armani gave an interview to Time magazine, where the legendary designer admitted his meetings with PETA had “convinced me not to use fur.
“Unfortunately, he’s gone back on his word.”
PETA is really hoping that Tom and Katie will use their star power to sway Armani’s decision.
I honestly can not see them dressing Suri in fur. They have enough issues when it comes to the media and this would put them in the spotlight in a very negative way. Also, like the letter said, Suri obviously loves animals. We see her with some sort of doll or stuffed animal all the time. I don’t think PETA has anything to worry about when it comes to Suri’s clothes, but….will Tom and Katie use their “influence” on Armani like they are hoping?
