The Humane Society is trying to get the Federal Trade Commission to investigate Neiman Marcus and Bergdorf Goodman's fur-labeling and advertising practices. Both chains allegedly falsely advertised Manolo Blahnik boots as being made with "natural ocelot fur" and "cava fur." However, the ocelot is an endangered species, and there is no such thing as cava fur. [WWD]
