Fur continues to be out of fashion, with Coach becoming the latest high-end brand to declare that it will no longer include it in its products.

The brand, known for its bags, gloves and exclusive bags, has announced its intention to no longer have fur before the unveiling of its Fall 2019 collection.

"The decision to no longer use fur is a milestone for the brand," said Joshua Schulman, Chief Executive Officer of Coach, in a statement, noting that this decision was consistent with the principles of corporate responsibility that the coach set up three years ago.

Big brands and designers have been losing fur more and more in recent months, after years of criticism of how animals are treated to get the material.

Burberry, the British premium brand known for its waterproof coats and rain boots, announced last month that it would no longer use real fur. And in March, the famous Versace label announced the implementation of a similar policy, echoing the initiatives of other designers such as Hugo Boss and Gucci.
