Alligator and calfskin are so last season.
An edgier choice? Wearing invasive species.
Conservation and raising awareness in the fashion industry are the goals, says New Orleans artist Cree McCree. Her clothing made from nutria—a South American rodent that’s been wreaking havoc in Louisiana wetlands for decades—has been featuredin major runway shows.
Paris-based designer Monika Jarosz has a cult following for her purses and wrist cuffs crafted from cane toad, a poisonous amphibian, also South American, introduced to Australia in the 1930s.
Detractors argue that wearing invasive species isn't more ethical than wearing other animals. For Jarosz and others, turning a pest into a product is a fashion-forward form of recycling.
