This is what we love about leather. The journey from the carcass to the beauty of the long leather coat. It is not a journey many vegans will enjoy but it is the journey into beauty. What we see is the beauty bequeathed to us by the slaughtered cow. It will have been skinned and gone through the tanning etc. Just that small description is enough to deter the vegan but for those who love leather it is a poetic journey. For we leather lovers appreciate the sacrifice the cow has made for us. We know that the leather coat is a special offering. We know that the cow is being given a greater life. We will wear it with pride. The sheets of leather sown together prove the beautiful long black leather coat as worn above. There is nothing more beautiful than seeing the leather from the back. The garment flows in all it’s beauty and flaps loudly as the wearer walks forward. We find the look and sound intoxicating. It is that the cow as acquired a second life. A second existence. As admirers of the long leather coat we are happy to enjoy such an experience as it stimulates our senses and it is one of the most beautiful things for a woman’s wardrobe. Sadly vegans will disagree but we know we are right. The long black leather coat is our right.
