Animal Fur Coats: Much Warmer than Synthetic Fibers

Animal Fur Coats: Much Warmer than Synthetic Fibers

Synthetic materials like polyester, nylon, fiborfill, holofill, or even polar fleece are a close second BUT are still not as warm as a fur coat or fur lining. As long as animal fur retains superior warmth and moisture resistant qualities to man made fibers, they will be valuable.

The good people of Buffalo are certainly no strangers to snow — but this week has put even the city’s most seasoned winter veterans to the test.

The latest from the National Weather Service is that parts of western New York state could get another 3 feet of lake-effect snow on top of the 5.5 feet already on the ground. At least 10 deaths are attributed to this week’s severe weather.

A surge of Arctic air, January-like wind chill and record-breaking low temperatures have left much of the continental United States shivering in unusually bitter November cold. 

With the most dangerous wind chills expected tonight and tomorrow morning, here are some tips for dealing with the cold:

Why do you think those Russian women wear those big fur hats when it’s 20 below zero? Because fur is incredibly warm, that’s why. Animal fur coats are much warmer than synthetic fibers, and also possess unique qualities in the deep cold. 

Furs remain the warmest material known to man. Stay safe this Winter: bundle up in a fur garment from Marc Kaufman Furs! We ship anywhere in the country, including those places hit hardest by this arctic surge.

Freezing Temperatures in Chicago Spark Dramatic Rise in Online Fur Sales

Freezing Temperatures in Chicago Spark Dramatic Rise in Online Fur Sales

Highs in the Twin Cities have been below freezing every day since Nov. 10, an 11-day stretch. This rivals the longest November subfreezing streaks on record there. The high on Nov. 17 was only 15 degrees, which is colder than their climatologically coldest average highs in January (23 degrees).

According to the National Weather Service, Chicago tied the record for longest stretch of subfreezing daily high temperatures, with seven days, for the month of November and set a record for consecutive hours below freezing for November with 180 hours.

Other Cold Notables:

Joplin, Missouri set a record low for the month of November on Tuesday with a low temperature of 6 degrees.

Casper, Wyoming, dipped to -27 at 11:59 p.m. Wednesday night, shattering their all-time November record low of -21 on Nov. 23, 1985 (records date to 1939). The temperature stayed at -27 at midnight Thursday, making it the new record low for Nov. 13 as well. Previously, the soonest Casper plunged to -27 was on Dec. 5, 1972.

Denver’s high of 6 on Nov. 12 was the coldest daily high so early in the season. Only three other November days had daily high temperatures colder in Denver, dating to 1872. Early Thursday morning, Denver chalked up a bone-chilling -14 degrees, easily the coldest temperature so early in the season.

Rihanna Beautiful Mink Coat

Rihanna steps out in baggy layers but adds extravagant touch with a mink coat the same one which caused uproar last year

She exposed oodles of flesh in a cut-out evening gown on Wednesday night.

But Rihanna appeared to be feeling more shy come Friday evening when she stepped out in New York in baggy layers.

However, the 26-year-old pop diva added an extravagant touch to her look with a mink coat – notably the same one that had animal cruelty protesters up in arms last year.

With temperatures dropping, Rihanna – who is a known fan of fur clothing and accessories – dug out the pelted knee-length garment for her evening jaunt.

Underneath she wore a loose-fitting graphic print T-shirt with black skinny jeans and donned flat Nike lace-ups on her feet.

She tied her raven locks into a low ponytail, with her fringe swept to the side and donned huge brown cat-eye sunglasses – which appeared to be trimmed with fuzzy felt.

Head down: The 26-year-old singer kept a low profile in massive brown cat-eye sunglasses

On Wednesday the Bajan beauty looked dramatically different in a risqué evening dress as she attended the amfAR Gala in Hollywood to Honor fashion designer Tom Ford.

The singer had donned a gown, by the man of the evening himself, which left little to the imagination with a hip-high slit and nude panels with purple sequins at the bust.

The star added a further racy touch with thigh high black stockings and purple platform heels. 

Rihanna splashed a lot of cash during the evening, shelling out $35,000 on Harry Winston diamond link earrings featuring 72 diamonds set in platinum. 

Courting controversy: The singer wore the same mink coat which had animal cruelty protesters up in arms last year

And a further $100,000 on the photograph of Elizabeth Taylor at the Eden Roc by Willy Rizzo, signed and numbered by the artist.  

Rihanna spent some time catching up with old friend Justin Timberlake as they sat side-by-side at the dinner table looking deep in conversation.

The star duo have been friends for years, and collaborated together on her album Rated R for the moody track Cold Case Love.  

Star-studded: Rihanna presented an award to Tom Ford at the glitzy event held at Milk Studios in Hollywood. Also pictured is Miley Cyrus in a very skimpy ensemble

In an age when one can rent a Mercedes or a date, fur rentals are still a rarity, according to Konnie Karopoulos, executive director of the Master Furriers Guild of America in New York, a national association of retail furriers. Few companies provide the service because of the risks: They are afraid customers will become attached to the furs and run off with them, Karopoulos said. At Marc Kaufman Furs, if you rent a fur and fall in love with it, we will apply the fur rental charge towards the purchase of the fur that you rented.

The increased growth in rentals reflects an upward sales trend in the fur business, Karopoulos said. Fur is no longer just for warmth on the coldest days of the year, furs has moved into the hot “must have” fashion category and are worn from day to night and across all seasons.

Joe Namath’s Fur Coat is the Talk of the Town

New York, NY – The legendary NY Jets quarterback “Broadway Joe” Willie Namath wore a show-stopping hooded coyote fur coat with white fox trim from local furrier Marc Kaufman Furs when he participated in the Super Bowl XLVIII coin toss on Sunday, along with New York Giants great Phil Simms. To say that his presence didn’t go unnoticed would be the understatement of the year. According to the Internet, Joe Namath’s coyote fur coat was one of the biggest stars of the night. It even has its own Twitter account.

Joe and his coyote fur coat with white fox lining starred in this Super Bowl XLVIII pre-game promo Broadway Joe Namath in his coyote coat from Marc Kaufman Furs with Giants great Phil Simms at Super Bowl XLVIII Broadway Joe, followed by daughter Jessica, showing off his 1969 championship ring. Joe has the distinction of being the only player to lead the New York Jets to a Super Bowl and is known for his swagger on and off the field.

It was January 12, 1969 and Super Bowl III was the third AFL-NFL Championship Game in professional American football, and the first to officially bear the name “Super Bowl”. After winning the coin toss, Namath led the Jets to one of the most iconic upsets in American sports history in a 16-7 win over the Baltimore Colts and was named the game’s MVP.

Joe in his famous fur look on the sidelines during his glory days with the NY Jets

In the following years, Joe originated the fad of wearing a fur coat on the sidelines and off, a habit which was adopted by many players after him. At 70 years young, Joe continues to rock his signature look, to the delight of generations of Jets fans.

“Broadway Joe” lived up to his name when he arrived at Met Life Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey on Sunday wearing a hooded coyote fur, with his beautiful daughter Jessica on his arm, clad in a fox jacket, proving he had lost none of his swagger.

Joe Namath and his daughter Jessica Namath in coyote and fox furs from Marc Kaufman Furs

Grinning from ear to ear in his coyote fur coat, Joe Namath tossed the coin before the team captains had made their coin-toss selection and referee Terry McAulay caught it before it landed.

Seattle won the toss anyway, and deferred.

Joe Namath with third generation furrier Marc Kaufman in midtown Manhattan last week

Jessica and Joe Namath picked out their stylish fur coats at a local NYC furrier four days before the big game.

Joe tried on half a dozen fur coats in Marc Kaufman’s midtown showroom before settling on the now famous coyote/white fox piece he wore to the big game.

For anyone who thinks that they can pull of the same look as Broadway Joe the coat will set you back about $3,000.

Fur is Back in Fashion with a Vengeance

Fur is Back in Fashion with a Vengeance: Will You Embrace It?

by Nora Crotty


Two Tone Brown and Black Mink Coat Puffed Collar exclusively from Marc Kaufman Furs’ collectionSupporters call it “natural” and “sustainable.” Opposers say it’s cruel and inhumane. But whichever side you fall on, there’s no denying that fur had a major presence on the fall 2013 runways this past month, being hailed as one of the biggest trends for next season.

Golden Sable Coat

Golden Sable Coat

Striped, dyed, embossed, and manipulated, the sheer amount of real animal fur we saw this fashion month was more overwhelming than we remembered from seasons past. We scoured through every single photo of every single collection that walked this season and found that a startling 70% of the designers who showed during fashion month used fur in at least one look. Several collections, including those by Altuzarra, Marc Jacobs, and Louis Vuitton, incorporated fur into over 20 looks. Others still, like J.Mendel, Marni, and Giambattista Valli, used fur in more than 30.

And then there was Fendi. Karl Lagerfeld apparently had some fuzzy vision happening while designing the Italian label’s fall line: Every single look from the 40+ piece collection featured multiple instances of fur usage, including (but certainly not limited to) coats, handbags, sunglasses, shoes, and even mohawk-esque hair pieces made of dyed fox. Needless to say, there were zero PETA pie-ings reported.

So is it safe to say that fur has finally fallen back into favor? Wearing fur has always been a hot button issue. Once considered the most regal and luxurious of materials, the animal rights movement first brought attention to the alleged wrongdoings of the fur trade in the late 1970s. In that same vein, the Internet age has beckoned an onslaught of viral anti-fur videos showing the horrific living (and dying) conditions of innocent animals skinned alive for their pelts–inspiring a new generation to think anti-fur. Veganism, more prevalent than ever amongst health-freaks and animals lovers alike (see: Anne Hathaway), promotes a lifestyle completely devoid of eating–or wearing–anything that once had a face. Not to mention the city of West Hollywood, California’s historic ban on the selling of fur products, slated to go into effect this September.

White Mink Coat Full Length

According to Keith Kaplan, executive director of the Fur Information Council of America, the case against fur is due mostly to a lack of education–and the fashion world is at the forefront of changing those misconceptions. “Designers have done their homework,” he told us via email. “They have come to recognize that the fur industry is committed to the humane and responsible treatment of animals and that no industry is more highly regulated at local, national, and international levels.”

Dyed Green Silver Fox Fur Vest, exclusively from Marc Kaufman Furs in NYCKaplan went on to describe fur as an eco-friendly option, calling it a “natural, renewable, biodegradable resource”–and thus a smarter choice than synthetic fur, which he says is petroleum-based, non-renewable, and manufactured in such a manner that “releases harmful chemicals into the atmosphere.”

Furthermore, “fur has a unique and unparalleled richness and texture that even the best of faux cannot replicate,” says Kaplan–which may explain why Marc Jacobs chose to show almost cartoon-like, stuffed animal-looking stoles for fall, made of very real animal fur.

Of course Vogue editor in chief Anna Wintour has made no secret of her penchant for the real stuff and is often credited with introducing it back into fashion. Countless verbal and physical attacks from anti-fur protesters (including a raccoon carcass-bombing during dinner) haven’t dissuaded the first lady of fashion from using it in her editorials since she began her rein in the late ’80s.

But were the fall runways a sign of the fashion industry going green, or something more sinister? PETA‘s Danielle Katz told us that fur-friendly designers, such as Karl Lagerfeld, “use dead animals for shock value” and that, as far as the general public is concerned, “fur remains as popular as a cold sore.”

Katz could be on the right track about the latter. After all, it was our shock at the prevalence of fur at shows like Lagerfeld’s Fendi that lead us to investigate fur’s current social standing in the first place. As for the public’s opinion, is the general populace really looking for a tube of Abreva big enough to wipe out the fur industry–or is the fashion industry simply responding to society’s fever for fur?

We consulted data polling site Gallup.com for the cold, hard, fur facts. Gallup’s most recent survey on the subject, conducted in May 2012, asked participants whether they considered wearing fur morally acceptable. Of the 1024 people included, a resounding 60% saw fur as morally acceptable–a 4% increase from the same poll taken one year earlier. However, in 2012, only 35% believed fur to be morally wrong–a 4% decrease from the 39% who were totally anti-fur in 2011.

But if these numbers say anything, it’s that fur’s approval rating has only increased in the past year–and the fashion industry, per usual, is totally in tune.

But what say you? Will you be clamoring for real-fur everything next season and turn your cheek at your house pets’ third cousins, or would you rather save the animals but potentially upset Mother Nature in doing so? Can there ever be a middle-ground when it comes to fur in fashion? We want to hear what you think.

New York luxury shopping NYC

New York luxury shopping for less best Places to Shop in NYC

New York luxury shopping for less

It’s still the world capital of luxury shopping – and with a little online homework, New York offers real bargains.
Look like a celebrity in this Tortoise Shell Hooded Mink Stroller from Marc Kaufman Furs’ collection

Fur Coats NYC View

“Yes, madam, a lot of our British and Irish visitors say they are surprised at the price differences,” murmurs the subtly scented and suited old-school salesman.
I am peering into a glass-topped cabinet at a collection of diamond rings in Tiffany & Co, on Fifth Avenue. New York, having a Holly Golightly rapture moment. The shop is not only redolent – still – of the comforting glamour it exuded in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. It is also much cheaper than the London branch.

The classic Tiffany engagement ring, for instance, costs $8,500 (£5,315) here. That’s £1,000 less than in London, where that same ring – as I know for sure, having recently been shopping with a friend who’s about to propose to a long-distance girlfriend – is £6,300.

The salesman is coy about providing exact London/New York comparisons, so, back at the hotel, pausing only to text my friend with the essential news, I go online to the Tiffany US and British websites. Amazing. The “Tiffany 1837” 18-carat cuff, £4,175 in London, costs $5,500 (£3,437) in New York. Jean Schlumberger platinum and diamond earrings, £2,050 in London, are $2,700 (£1,685) in New York; a 16-stone diamond and platinum ring that costs £5,500 in London is $7,250 (£4,531) in New York.

New York is still the World’s shopping HQ. None of its rivals offer anywhere near as comprehensive a range of delectable things at unbeatable prices. Milan is suitable for hard-edged high fashion, but only if you are not scared by spider-thin sales assistants who stalk around pointedly tidying the hangers behind anyone who dares browse. Paris has the World’s loveliest scents, cosmetics, and lingerie stores, but clothes-wise is hard if you are tall, since almost everything aimed at the shorter French person.

Bangkok is excellent for gems and Tokyo for futuristic beauty and electronic stuff, but they are a long way to go to the shop. Stockholm, Helsinki, and Copenhagen have the World’s best shops for calmly-designed homeware but are relatively dull for clothes.

What is especially satisfying about New York is that it is easy to compare prices online. Tiffany is far from being alone in operating a usefully informative website (www.tiffany.com). Department stores such as Bloomingdale’s, Bergdorf Goodman, and Saks all run sites that make it easy to see what’s in store and what everything costs.

Clothes make some of the best buys, of course, as long as you shop for American designers. This spring at Saks (www.saksfifthavenue.com), for instance, online research reveals that you will find the 7 For All Mankind “Josefina” boy-cut jeans that are £200 at Net-a-Porter for $198 (£123). The J Brand loose chinos that are £230 at Net-a-Porter are $216 (£135). At the old-world Ralph Lauren store on Madison Avenue (www.ralphlauren.com), the standard men’s polo shirt, £65 in Harrods, costs $75 (£47). Marc Kaufman Furs, New York’s Largest Fur Store (kaufmanfurs.com) And in Bloomingdale’s (www.bloomingdales.com), the famous Juicy Couture tracksuit, still a gym-goer’s staple, £190 at Harvey Nichols, costs $178 (£110).

Among accessories, a covetable Nancy Gonzalez crocodile bag that costs £2,200 at Harrods is $2,750 (£1,693) at Bergdorf’s (www.bergdorfgoodman.com). In Bloomingdale’s, Diane von Furstenberg’s “Dahlia” sandals that cost £195 at Net-a-Porter cost $195 (£121), and the sequined Fit Flops that are £50 in London, $60 (£37.50).

Designer silk scarves are 40 percent off regular prices in Century 21 (www.c21stores.com) American cosmetics and skincare brands such as MAC, Laura Mercier, Benefit, Philosophy, and Clinique are almost half the UK price at the 14 branches of cosmetics chain Sephora (www.sephora.com) At Bloomingdale’s, the file-style Trish McEvoy make-up bag, perfect for travel, and £55 at Selfridges, is $58 (£36).

Cameras, netbooks, laptops and other electronics are routinely 30 to 60 percent cheaper than at home at the ever-reliable.

Homewares are often less expensive, but not practical buys unless light or small. In Ralph Lauren’s home department, the crystal Bentley martini glasses that are £100 each in Harrods cost $125 (£78) each, while an “Overlap” picture frame, five inches by seven, £100 in Harrods, is $93 (£59). And there are some excellent deals on sports equipment. A golfer’s Callaway Big Bertha Diablo driver, for example, £239 in London sports stores, is $199.95 (£124) at World of Golf (www.theworldofgolf.com) Admittedly, though, that would be harder to take home than a neat little box from Tiffany.

My ring-buying friend, incidentally, has already booked a New York weekend for himself and his girlfriend – effectively free.

The best times are March-June and October-December – neither oppressively hot nor bitterly cold.

Where to stay
Five minutes’ walk from Tiffany, Saks, and Bergdorf Goodman, The New York Palace (00 1 212 888 7000, www.dorchestercollection.com) have views of the Empire State building from the higher floors. In the Renaissance Gilt, it has the city’s most beautiful dining room – plus an executive lounge for breakfast and day-long free snacks, drinks, and computer use. Doubles start at £246, a spectacular triplex at £927. Downtown, Thompson Hotels’ Smyth (00 1 212 587 7000) is the closest to J&R and Century 21; doubles from £151.

The relaxed new LES (00 1 212 460 5300), also from Thompson, is handily located near the cutting-edge boutiques of the Lower East Side; doubles from £215. (www.thompsonhotels.com)
Where to eat
As soon as you fix flights, book a table for dinner at the new Crosby Street Hotel (00 1 212 226 6400, www.firmdale.com), currently one of the liveliest scenes in the city. Alternatively, try the thoroughly American Standard Grill (00 1 212 645 4100, www.standardhotels.com) at The Standard Hotel in the heart of the Meatpacking District.
Getting around. luxury shopping, best part of NYC. The essential bus and subway fare is $2.50. A multi-trip MetroCard is useful, bought from any subway station. However, nothing beats bouncing over the potholes and steam vents in a yellow cab.

Virgin Atlantic (08448 747 747, www.virginatlantic.com) flies to NYC five times a day, from £361 economy to £2,047 Upper Class.
