Snoop Dogg brought heaps of outerwear with him to the Milan Cortina Olympic Games. A jacket with the face of snowboarder Chloe Kim, and another with bobsledder Kaysha Love. But something he picked up in Cortina was an accoutrement to fit seamlessly into the local scene: a fur hat.
Among the upscale mountain towns dotting the Dolomites, fashion and fur have been cultural staples for as long as anyone can remember. In “For Your Eyes Only,” parts of which were filmed in Cortina, James Bond donned fur-trimmed jackets, and many of the actresses wore get-ups of head-to-toe fur. Along Cortina's pedestrian-only main street, most clothing stores display fur — whether real or synthetic — in their windows.
