Activists protest fashion designer’s use of leather, urging her to use vegan solutions
The Victoria Beckham Show at Paris Fashion Week was interrupted by activists from the animal rights group Peta, who stormed the catwalk to protest the fashion designer’s use of animal products.
The protesters wore white T-shirts that read “turn your back on animal skins” and “animals are not cloth”. They walked alongside the models on the catwalk, holding placards that read: “Viva vegan leather.”

“We urge Victoria Beckham to turn to ethical and environmentally friendly innovations available today, such as high-quality leather made from apples, grapes, pineapples, mushrooms and more,” the activist group said, among other things.

Beckham made a dramatic entrance at the end of the show, walking the length of the runway on crutches. Her husband, David Beckham, said on Instagram that she had injured her leg after a minor accident at the gym.
