5 December 2018, Paris: Chanel became the first luxury fashion maison to ban lizard, crocodile and snake skin altogether. Chanel’s fashion head Bruno Pavlovsky stated for the French press that the house”would no longer use exotic skins in our future creations”.
“We use very little in reality in our collections. And as with leather, we continue to work with the food industry and with certified, traceable suppliers”.
