Fashion Label bebe goes all PETA on us!

Fashion retailer bebe stores inc is to discontinue buying product with animal fur from January 2008. CEO Gregory Scott said bebe's "policy regarding fur has always been based on a strong belief in animal rights and the humane and ethical treatment of animals. Over the past year, bebe has gone to great lengths in working with its vendors to ensure that only fur created as a by-product could be used."

"Over this same period of time, we are proud to say that we have dramatically reduced the use of animal fur to less than 3% of our product offering and now look forward to completely eliminating animal fur from our orders beginning in January 2008."
