Kendall Jenner Called A Hypocrite For Posing In $27,000 Fur Coat

Highlights

• Kendall Jenner faces backlash for wearing an expensive fur coat, causing critics to label her a hypocrite.
• Fans question whether the fur coat is real and accuse Kendall of supporting the controversial fur industry.
• The fur industry is ethically problematic, but it contributes significantly to the global economy and enjoys celebrity support.

As one of the world’s highest-paid supermodels, Kendall Jenner gets to try on a lot of different designer looks. But a very expensive fur coat she rocked on social media has stirred controversy, leading some critics to call Kendall a hypocrite.

Earlier this month, the reality star posted a slideshow of images to Instagram that included a selfie she took wearing an oversized fur jacket. In the image, the black and brown fur coat took center stage, as the model’s dark air blended in seamlessly with the jacket’s coloring. Her dark phone case and simple jewelry complimented the luxe look, as did the fierce look on Kendall’s face.

She may have her own tequila business, but don't expect Kendall to launch a beauty brand anytime soon.

The Kardashians star was apparently on vacation with Justina and Hailey Bieber in Aspen, Colorado when she took the fur jacket selfie, explaining the need for such a heavy jacket. Kendall has been vacationing with friends in the wake of her break-up from Bad Bunny after nearly a year of dating.

Though the post seemed both glamorous and innocent, it quickly prompted some fans to question whether that was real fur or not. Assuming it was real, some comments called Kendall out for supporting the fur industry, especially when she’s described herself as an animal lover in the past.

“Claims to be an animal lover,” one comment said, Us Weekly wrote . “It’s giving narnia coat closet,” another critic added.

It didn’t help that various outlets have identified the designer jacket as costing a cool $27,000, a big fortune to spend on something so controversial, at least for many of Kendall’s fans.

This isn’t the first time Kendall has been criticized for her expensive taste in fur jackets – nor is it the first time a Kardashian-Jenner family member has been called out for rocking fur.

Many people argue that wearing fur and supporting the fur industry is ethically problematic due to concerns about animal welfare. They assert that the fur trade often involves inhumane treatment of animals, contributing to the suffering and death of countless creatures solely for the sake of fashion.

However, the fur industry contributes over $40 billion to the global economy, estimates say. And with big time celebrities like Kendall Jenner supporting fur on social media, it doesn’t appear lie the industry is going to downsize anytime soon.
