Did you know? During the Renaissance in Europe (16th century), personal hygiene was replaced by perfume for many years, and fur collars were sometimes worn to attract and collect lice in them so that the wearer would not be bitten. These collars were called "lousy fur". Until 19th century, fur was mainly used in Europe as lining, the first fur cloak was designed at the end of 19th century in France.
