Humane Society International states that the British royal's decision to 'go faux' sends' a powerful message that fur is firmly out of fashion and does not belong with Brand Britain.'

AceShowbiz - Queen Elizabeth II has given anti-fur campaigners an early Christmas gift by opting to ditch controversial items from her winter wardrobe.

The British royal's personal adviser and senior dresser, Angela Kelly, has told Vogue magazine The Queen is going fur-free.

"If Her Majesty is due to attend an engagement in particularly cold weather, from 2019 onwards fake fur will be used to make sure she stays warm," Kelly explains.

The decision has been applauded by officials at the Humane Society International/UK, who run the #FurFreeBritain campaign for a U.K. ban on the sale of real animal fur.

Claire Bass, the organisation's executive director, says, "We are thrilled that Her Majesty has officially gone fur-free. Queen Elizabeth's decision to 'go faux' is the perfect reflection of the mood of the British public, the vast majority of whom detest cruel fur, and want nothing to do with it."

"Our Head of State going fur-free sends a powerful message that fur is firmly out of fashion and does not belong with Brand Britain. The U.K. banned fur farming almost two decades ago because it was deemed too cruel, now we must finish the job and ban fur sales too. We are calling on the British government to follow Her Majesty's example and make the U.K. the first country in the world to ban the sale of animal fur."
