Roadkill’s a bummer. But where you and I see mangled animals taken too soon from this world, one woman—a woman of VISION—sees muffs and hats and legwarmers that could be.
Meet Pamela Paquin, who’s recently started a line called Petite Mort Fur, which sells “accidental furs,” which are “loving resurrections of our fuzzy wild neighbors who have met with an untimely or natural death.” Yup, she takes those poor dead critters and transforms them into ethically-sourced fashion pieces. “These neck muffs that I make, I can literally take two raccoons and put them butt to butt and then they clasp neck to neck,” she told the Washington Post in a recent interview. She says raccoon fur is “luscious.”
