Idea and experimentation for a sub category that names and shames designers and people contributing to animal exploitation in the fashion industry.

Chic Vegan is a place where compassionate fashionistas, vegan vixens and ethical men all meet up to discuss how they can make the world a better place for people and animals alike. Chic Vegan was created in 2008 as a place for women to keep up to date on new cruelty free fashions. It has since become an extravaganza of fashion, cosmetics, self-improvement, diet, eco-love and many, many other things.
