ARMANI IN SHOCKING NEW VIDEO
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, with more than 2 million members and supporters, is the largest animal rights organization in the world. Giorgio Armani has been promising to go fur-free and then reneging on the idea altogether in order to make rabbit-fur outfits for babies.
Hearing this loud and clear, A-list actress and compassionate PETA friend Gillian Anderson really came through to lend her support to this issue. Her voice can now be heard narrating a shocking, moving investigation video that takes you into the depths of rabbit fur farming.
The video was unveiled earlier today at a news conference outside Armani's Michigan Avenue store in Chicago. I strongly encourage you to watch this video and pledge to be fur-free. Gillian, PETA, and all the rabbits of the world will thank you for it.
