wear a rabbit coat and it will look like a snow storm when you take it off.God help you if you shake it. In fact "Miss Manners" in the 1950/60 had a reminder bulliten out at prom time telling young ladies NOT to wear "bunny fur wraps to prom or Cotillion,as they would shed all over the dark ROTC boys dress uniforms and make a terrible mess. Right now I'm all for very nice,expensive faux fur....just NO DRYERS please.(Had a very soft,shiney"mink" spread ,which after a trip thru the hot dryer,now resembles Buffalo hide.) Melody
