Sleek fur coats that grew in a factory instead of on a four-footed beast are coming off the assembly line here. They closely resemble the real thing, but they are made entirely of nylon.

Nylon doesn't interest moths so the coats need no special storage, and there's nothing in the fabric to trouble persons allergic to furs. The material, says Krasno, is also windproof and water repellent. If the "hairs" become matted.

That's because no's firm-Milfur, was ally in the busmes of making mouton coats. They dropped the real moutons last winter and have switched over completely to nylon. But Krasno declares that nylon pile can be made to resemble any real fur so closely that an expert: can only tel! the difference by the closest scrutiny. 'The nylon can even be baked to hold the curl of Persian lamb. While nylon probably won't make inroads in the mink and chinchilla set.
