Celebrities Turning A Blind Eye To Basic Ethics
Look, we’ve all been there. You’re scrolling through Instagram, minding your own business. Then suddenly you’re hit with a “What’s in my bag?” video featuring a $50,000 piece of dead animal skin. At Caavakushi, we’ve noticed that some A-listers seem to think their fame gives them a get out of jail free card when it comes to basic ethics. It’s not acceptable. While the rest of us are moving toward mushroom leather and recycled ocean plastics. A handful of celebrities are still acting like it’s 1950. The Caavakushi team thinks it’s time to call out the enablers. We’re not just being grumpy; the statistics from recent 2025 and 2026 industry reports show that the quite luxury handbags industry is a primary driver of some of the most gruesome wildlife exploitation on the planet.
5 Celebrities That Are Marketing An Animal Massacre
Let’s be real: wearing a dead crocodile isn’t a flex—it’s a failure of imagination. The Caavakushi team feels that when a celebrity with 100 million followers carries an exotic skin bag, they aren’t making a fashion statement; they are actively marketing a massacre.
According to the Four Paws’ 2025 Animal Welfare in Fashion Report, quite luxury handbags brands continue to be the problem children of the industry, achieving an average animal welfare score of just 30% (Our source: Four Paws/Good On You, 2025). We noticed that despite the rise of incredible vegan alternatives, these five stars are still keeping the cruelty machine well-oiled.
1. Kim Kardashian
The queen of the Mob Wife aesthetic has been spotted repeatedly in 2025 and early 2026 with ultra-rare Hermès Birkins. Most recently, we noticed she sparked outrage by carrying a vintage elephant leather Birkin in her series All’s Fair (Our source: SCMP Style, Dec 2025). The Caavakushi team thinks it’s absolutely mental to promote elephant skin—a material that represents an era before modern conservation laws—to a massive Gen Z audience.
2. Kylie Jenner
Like sister, like sister. Kylie celebrated her 28th birthday in August 2025 by debuting a Shiny Bordeaux Porosus Crocodile Birkin (Our source: Marie Claire, Aug 2025). We noticed that it takes roughly three crocodiles to make just one of these bags. When you realize that 100% of these animals are typically kept in crowded concrete pits before being slaughtered, that birthday gift starts to look a lot less pretty.
3. Pharrell Williams
As the creative director of Louis Vuitton Men’s, Pharrell has been a major advocate for real fur and exotic skins. In late 2024 and throughout 2025, he defended the use of animal skins as a design thing (Our source: Plant Based News, 2024). The Caavakushi team feels that comparing animal skin to cotton because “it breathes” is the kind of logic only someone living in a literal bubble could maintain.
4. Cardi B
We’ve noticed Cardi B’s collection of crocodile Birkins is growing faster than her discography. In recent 2025 updates, she was gifted three more crocodile bags by her husband, Offset (Our source: Privé Porter Blog, 2025). PETA has pointed out that the industry behind these bags involves brain-scrambling metal rods used on conscious animals—a fact that seems to have 0% impact on her wardrobe choices.
5. Jennifer Lopez
J-Lo has been a target of activists for decades, and 2026 is no different. We’ve noticed her rocking real fur stoles and exotic skin accessories at major events like the 2025 Grammys (Our source: Haute Acorn, 2025). The Caavakushi team thinks it’s high time she used her influence to promote the 80% carbon-emission reduction that comes with switching to vegan plant-based leathers.
Toll Of The Quite Luxury Handbags Industry
We feel it’s important to remember that 100 million animals are killed annually for the fashion industry (Our source: Humane Society International). Always keep in mind that when celebrities endorse the quite luxury handbags industry, they are supporting a system where animals are often skinned alive or bludgeoned with hammers.
Final Thoughts From The Caavakushi Team
We think true luxury is having a heart. “You can’t call yourself a trendsetter if you’re still wearing the 1800s,” is our favourite office mantra. Let’s stop making celebrities endorse animal cruelty by refusing to like their posts or buy the brands they’re shilling for.
