Introduction
Is your fashion truly cruelty-free?
Animal-derived materials often hide in plain sight—leather jackets, wool sweaters, silk blouses… even glues in shoes.
But thanks to the PETA-Approved Vegan certification, spotting genuinely animal-free products is now easier than ever. This globally recognized label ensures that what you’re wearing is 100% free from animal ingredients and animal testing.
For eco-conscious shoppers who care about animal rights, it’s a symbol that speaks volumes.
What Is PETA-Approved Vegan?
The PETA-Approved Vegan logo is awarded by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) to fashion brands and manufacturers whose products are completely free of animal-derived materials—including leather, fur, wool, silk, down, and animal-based dyes or glues.
🐾 Why Should You Care?
- It's the fastest-growing label in ethical fashion—especially important for shoppers who are vegan, vegetarian, or concerned about animal welfare.
- Animal farming for fashion is a major contributor to deforestation, water pollution, and greenhouse gases.
- Animal-free fashion is often more innovative, sustainable, and inclusive.
If it carries the PETA-Approved Vegan tag, it’s a commitment to zero animal exploitation—in the product itself and in the supply chain.

Practical Tips for Cruelty-Free Fashion
How to Shop Vegan Fashion Like a Pro:

Look for the Bunny Logo
The “PETA-Approved Vegan” label is often printed on product tags or displayed on brand pages. It’s your shortcut to shopping cruelty-free. -
Read Labels with a Critical Eye
Materials like suede, shearling, cashmere, and angora are all animal-based—even if they sound soft and luxurious. -
Don’t Be Fooled by “Faux”
Some “faux leather” items may still use animal-based glues. Only certified products guarantee 100% vegan content. -
