A prominent animal rights group is planning to meet with a top fashion executive who was filmed physically restraining two protesters during an altercation at a New York runway show, an incident that stunned many in the fashion world.
Moira Colley, senior director of media relations for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals in New York, said Tuesday that the group has plans to meet with Steven Kolb, longtime chief executive of the Council of Fashion Designers of America, to discuss ending the use of wool and animal skins in clothing.
