@baddog - My guess is that it had something to do with fur. The other week she attended a Kanye West fashion show wearing fur.

*hotlinken*


Kanye West uses Astrakhan fur in his pieces. They actually cut the lamb from the pregnant sheep before it's born and use the fetal pelt. It's softer that way..............

from Wikipedia...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astrakhan_fur

Karakul pelts

Very young or even fetal Karakul lambs are prized for pelts. Newborn karakul sheep's pelts are called karakul (also spelled caracul), swakara (coined from South West Africa Karakul), astrakhan (Russian), Persian lamb, agnello di Persia, (Italian), krimmer (Russian) and garaköli bagana (Turkmen). Sometimes the terms for newborn lambs' and fetal lambs' pelts are used interchangeably.[2] The newborn lambs have a tight, curly pattern of hair. The lambs must be under three days old when they are killed, or they will lose their black color and soft, tightly wound coils of fur. Dark colors are dominant and lambs often darken in color as they age. Fetal karakul lambs' pelts are called broadtail, breitschwanz (German), and karakulcha. People use the lambs' pelts to create various clothing items, such as the karakul hat.[3] The pelts have been used in haute couture.[4][5]
