Hearst Magazines, an American publishing company, has implemented an animal fur ban across its editorial and advertising content. A spokesperson confirmed on Tuesday the Harper’s Bazaar publisher had added the new regulation to the sustainability section of its “About Us” webpage.
The new amendment reads: “Across our portfolio of wholly owned global brands, Hearst Magazines prohibits the promotion of animal fur in editorial content and advertising. (Our guidelines recognize defined exceptions and apply to all new business and future content).”
The decision comes less than a week after the Council of Fashion Designers of America announced last Wednesday it would ban fur from New York Fashion Week, and two months after publishing imprint Condé Nast went public with its own fur ban across editorial content and advertising.
