I do not beleive it is a good image to send to the public to wear dead animals. It shows a sign of disrespect to nature. Our children see these images easeir now today than ever before in society due to the internet and television, it's teaching them that animals are "things". Animals are not things, they are "earthlings", they feel, think, and have naturalistic life skills, just like human beings. 

I am kindly asking the Petitionsausschuss Deutscher Bundestag, Iris Shieferstein, and the Federal Trade Commission to stop the production of this type of clothing in any industry; in all countries, starting with Iris Shieferstein.

I also ask that Petitionsausschuss Deutscher Bundestag, Iris Shieferstein, and the Federal Trade Commission keep the public updated on the status of this petiton, we as the public care to know the results. 

Thank you.

To be honest: This is the most stupid thing I came across for a long time. Do you really think people like Irisi Schieferstein are the "bad" people here? Before you start screaming at someone who produces mostly art and MAYBE 50 pieces a year from already DEAD animals... think about the millions of deer, rabbits, cats, dogs, sheeps, pigs, Idon'tknowwhat who are SLAUGHTERED for this. Do you wear leather shoes? Own a handbag with leather? WELL, THEN - you are the bad one too, here. And to keep this going: think about billions of people who work in Malaysia or Indonesia (for example) to produce cheap clothing for H&M and aren't paid well. They live in the dirt and you scream about a few animals that are dead anyway. How stupid and simple minded can somebody be to not see what is really important here. But well, go on claiming a few artists are the bad ones. Go on, the hell is right here.
