It is inevitable to note that astrakhan fur has been making a big comeback. Colorful pieces made of astrakhan fur have appeared in various Christian Dior collections since Raf's take-over throughout the seasons, and a few more designers have embraced the trend since:

Christian Dior F/W 12.13 CTR & Pre-fall '13

Christian Dior F/W 13.14, F/W 13.14 CTR, Resort '14 & Pre-fall '14

Balenciaga Pre-fall '14, Burberry Pre-fall '14 & Valentino F/W 13.14 CTR

thanks for the thread! Its a very beautiful textile. I love the use of it in Raf's Dior and the longer coats like the ones pictured above and at Valentino

I believe Miuccia had some influence on Raf Simons. She presented these gorgeous pieces for Fall 2012, almost 6 months before Dior.

It's extremely beautiful. But such a gruesome beauty, imo.

I agree. Speaking for myself, I will only consider wearing vintage astrakhan pieces.
