Shearling for men: how to wear it this winter

_{Posted in Fashion / Fashion blog / Fashion trends / Men's fashion trends}

This season, one phrase that you should never utter goes as follows:

"I'm wearing Persian Lamb."

To utter it would be akin to saying "see my lovely shearling collar? It's made from the skin of newborn lambs." Lambs, in the plural. And by lambs I potentially mean unborn lambs. Or guaranteeably no older than 3 day old lambs. It won’t just be PETA that hates you for it – this is the sartorial equivalent of dressing in the hope of never getting laid again, or perhaps yourself being mulesed. Lambs are universally found to be cute and adorable, people fawn over them even if a lamb’s dawn bleets are amongst the most annoying sounds on Earth.

Shearling is back amongst men’s winter 2012 fashion, and Persian Lamb is amongst the trend’s elements. Wear shearling if you like, and after the break we’ll show you just how to do that, but if you venture into the realm of something that remotely resembles Persian Lamb refer to it just as “shearling”, your “nice wool collar” or pray for the opportunity to mutter “faux” under your breath.
