[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm intrigued by the poster on the first page who said it's a deal breaker for prospective dates. I'm in my early 40s and I cannot think most men even contemplate the prospects of a woman their age wearing fur because virtually no woman under 60 wears fur. That's how rare it is. Calling it a dealbreaker is one of those errr, ok moment that does make me question his suitability as a prospective date for very different reasons. Assuming I was on the market ;)

As it is, my 75 y/o mother has two inherited fur coats from her mother's generation. One was a very expensive mink, the other a lesser quality mink. She used to bring out the big mink for Christmas eve services but hasn't done so in a few years. Who knows what will happen to these. They are gorgeous. [/quote]

I was in the Vicenza region of Italy during the holidays and I was shocked at how many women wore furs.  Many women over the age of 60 wore long furs riding their bikes to shops in town and to the markets.  A lot of 80 year olds wore long furs riding their bikes to the markets.  I suspect these furs are worn every day, year after year and would have been very valuable when purchased. Eighty year old women in Italy saw a lot as children during WWII and post WWII Europe.[/quote]

I like to watch Milan street style videos on YouTube. I see women of all ages wearing real fur coats and real fur trimmed coats in these videos. It is only a matter of time until this trend reaches DC. [/quote]
