Decades of coordinated campaigning, involving protests and even personal attacks outside stores and fashion shows, led by organizations like PETA, created a stigma around wearing real fur in recent years. But now vintage pieces are popping up all over, a Times article reports.

What are your thoughts on the activism against fur clothing? Have these efforts affected your feelings about furs?
