Milanese fashion house Prada is the latest luxury brand to announce the decision to forgo the use of fur in future collections. The fur-free ban will come into place this September, for the maison's spring/summer 2020 women's ready-to-wear lines, however, pieces that already have been produced will continue to be sold.

The decision to go completely fur-free was made in collaboration with the Fur Free Alliance, an international group of more than 40 animal protection organisations that work together to end animal cruelty. Prada's artistic director Miuccia Prada further elaborated on the ban in a statement released to the press.

"The Prada Group is committed to innovation and social responsibility, and our fur-free policy is an extension of that engagement. Focusing on innovative materials will allow the company to explore new boundaries of creative design, while meeting the demand for ethical products," she said.

Prada joins the ranks of Burberry, Gucci and Armani, Stella McCartney and Vivienne Westwood, among others, who refuse to use real fur in their collections.

With the necessity of fur continuing to be a divisive issue for the fashion industry, and many customers opting for fur-free brands in opposition to the fur industry, we've rounded-up every Australian and global fashion brand and retailer pledged to working fur-free.
