Be on the look out for real fur when you're out shopping, or in mail order catalogues. There is a lot of fake fur that looks very real so please try and determine whether it is fake or real, check the label and ask the shop assistants. The shop assistants may not know. Many shops simply buy designs that they like and don't know whether the fur trim is real, other shops are sent supplies from their head office so have less control over what they sell.
