Wham, Bam, Thank You, Human
The August issue of W, my favorite fashion magazine, features a 24-page layout starring...furries. Furvert: "The furvert crowd emerged in the 1980s from the worlds of 'furry' fandom, a non-sexual fan subculture devoted to cartoon animals from comic books and animated TV shows. The difference between a 'furry' fan and a 'furvert' is that furverts sexualize their cartoon characters." First, Kitty met the furries. Then, furries found Second Life. Now, furries are couture. The furry fan in the photos is model of the moment Doutzen.
