Marc Jacobs shamed ‘hostile’ anti-fur protestors after his publicist was confronted in New York City
The 61-year-old fashion designer took to Instagram on Sunday, June 2, to call out “hostile” protestors after videos surfaced online of his publicist, Michael Ariano, being followed by a group of screaming people who accused the fashion house of using real animal fur.
He continued, “It pains me to give into bullies. I had given into bullies much of my young life. Unfortunately, in my current situation with a radical organization claiming to care about the lives of animals while endangering the well-being of innocent individuals and communities leaves me no choice but to give in to a bully.” Jacobs went on to set the record straight, asserting that his label has not used fur since 2018.
He continued, “This organization has made it clear that they will not stop their violence toward Marc Jacobs unless they get the statement they want. While I don’t condone the behavior of this organization, I will always do what I can to protect, honor and respect the lives and wellbeing of the people I work with.”
