The Worst-Dressed Celebrity of 2010 Is …

By Patricia Trostle

And the winner is … Catherine Zeta-Jones! She definitely earned the title this year by parading around in a gigantic grandma fur coat and tacky leather pants. Continuing her one-woman mass assault on the animal kingdom, she topped off her ensemble of death with a croc bag.

Animals who are turned into fur garments are barbarically killed to avoid damaging their pelts. These animals are strangled and stomped on and have their necks broken—they are even vaginally and anally electrocuted!

Reptiles are usually caught in the wild—often illegally—and their skin is torn from their bodies while they are still alive. Since they are coldblooded animals, they can suffer for hours or even days before they die.

Cows and other animals who are turned into leather endure all the same horrors as animals on factory farms. These animals are routinely skinned and dismembered while they are still conscious. Mouse over each animal skin to learn more about where it came from.

In this day and age, there's no reason anyone should be wearing the skins of dead animals, especially since there are so many amazing alternatives available. These celebs should be ashamed about walking around wearing pieces of corpses and carrying bags made from someone else's skin. They should take some tips from stylish vegan celebs such as Natalie Portman and Alicia Silverstone and follow the lead of fabulous fur-free style icons such as Eva Mendes, Charlize Theron, and Stella McCartney.
