“Vegan” Kourtney Kardashian Posts In $9,000 Lamb Leather Outfit

The soon-to-be mother of four recently flaunted her baby bump on Instagram while donning a stunning all-blue ensemble worth a staggering $9,000. The outfit’s opulence, however, is not the only aspect that’s catching attention – it’s the materials from which it’s made and the implications it raises regarding ethical fashion choices.

Kourtney’s Instagram post showcased her in a blue outfit that consists of a long-sleeved oversized cropped jacket with fur accents and a matching super-short skirt. Completing the look is a pair of silver heels. While Kourtney confidently embraced her pregnancy and fashion sense in the post, it’s the details of the outfit’s composition that raise eyebrows.

Despite Kourtney’s known inclination towards a largely vegan lifestyle, her outfit is made from animal skin, a stark contrast to her values. The top, as described on the website, is made from 100 percent lamb leather, and the skirt is constructed from 100 percent shearling, a processed form of lambskin. This has caused some to question the consistency between Kourtney’s fashion choices and her commitment to a plant-based lifestyle.

Kourtney’s lifestyle blog, Poosh, characterizes her as “(mostly, like 95%) vegan.” The blog details her journey towards adopting a more plant-based diet, encouraging others to make gradual shifts towards meat-free options. However, her recent fashion choice has sparked conversations about whether she is truly living up to her principles.

Kourtney is not alone in the Kardashian family in facing such ethical dilemmas. Sister Kim Kardashian, known for her past advocacy against fur, has herself been involved in controversies regarding her fashion choices.

Kim’s decision to give up fur after being urged by animal rights campaigners seemed like a significant step towards ethical fashion. However, subsequent events revealed that some of her wardrobe choices still involve animal-sourced materials, drawing criticism from organizations like PETA. The Kardashians’ online store, Kardashian Kloset, which sells second-hand clothing, came under fire from PETA for selling rare fur and exotic animal-skinned goods, leading to calls for these items to be distributed to those in need.

The broader fashion industry has also undergone significant shifts toward ethical and sustainable practices. Major brands like Prada, Gucci, Chanel, and Versace have taken stands against using fur and exotic skins in their products. This movement reflects growing consumer awareness about the impact of fashion on animals and the environment. However, navigating the world of ethical fashion can still be challenging, as laws and regulations vary, and individual choices often intersect with personal values and brand identities.
