Sobara Fur Ad Crucified by Jezebel

While Jerry Sobara Furs, according to some quick research, certainly seems to be a real company, celebu-blog Jezebel took a look at the company’s latest ad in the December issue of Vogue and wonders if PETA was involved. Positing the ad could not possibly be real, Jezebel writer, Moe, says “I mean, I know fuck-all about fashion, and I know you don’t make gold-colored fur jacket with gold buttons and gold bric-a-brac trim. And if you do that, you definitely don’t force the model to stand against a bronzy-gold wall and leaning on a gold paisley chair with a mustard-gold gloved hand.

Humorously, the writer also wonders what the motive was behind the casting of the…um…not so beautiful model in the ad asking if Sobara “put out a call for ‘pre-op Celine Dion, only 50-75 percent uglier?'” It goes on from there. And we thought we were harsh.
