According to Neal Travis's column in the August 10 New
York Post, SEX IN THE CITY has agreed to stop promoting fur.
Travis writes:
PETA officials recently stopped by the show's set to talk about the fur
issue, and now the designer, Emmy-nominated Pat Field, has written to
the group saying she never intended to promote fur sales. "Had we known
the show's characters would be seen as trendsetters, we would have been
more careful how we dressed them," Field wrote. "From now on, we will
use minimal fur on the series, and the fur we will use will only be
vintage or fake."
