Hustlers Movie Strip Clubs JLo Furs

Hustlers Strip Club Fashion

Jennifer Lopez struts onto the main stage of a cavernous strip club in “Hustlers” to the blaring tune of Fiona Apple’s late ‘90s anthem “Criminal”—the first line of which, “I’ve been a bad, bad girl,” suggests the knowing, playful tease to come.

Lusty men in musty suits immediately begin throwing money at her legendary derriere—not Lopez’s, exactly, but that of the veteran exotic dancer she portrays, the impeccably preserved Ramona. Still, it’s hard to discern completely between Lopez the superstar and the larger-than-life character she plays in “Hustlers,” and that’s part of the pleasure of watching this career-best performance from the multi-talented multi-hyphenate. We know this figure—we see the swagger, the magnetism, the incandescent ability to work an audience. Jennifer Lopez repurposed and repackaged all her well-honed skills here as a reminder that she is naturally gifted actress before she was known as JLo.

History of Hustlers Movie

On June 11, 2014, four women and one man indicted for allegedly drugging men and charging thousands of dollars on their credit cards at New York City clubs. Five years later, one of those women — Roselyn “Rosie” Keo, considered one of the scheme’s two ringleaders — posed for photographers at the Toronto International Film Festival.

Keo, who was sentenced to five years probation in 2016, was in Toronto to watch her own story play out onscreen in Hustlers, a new movie from writer-director Lorene Scafaria, which premiered at the festival on Sept. 7 and hits theaters nationwide Sept. 13.

Hustlers is based on Jessica Pressler’s December 2015 New York magazine article “The Hustlers at Scores Strip Club,” for which the journalist interviewed both Keo and the scheme’s other leader, Samantha Foxx (née Barbash; This story will refer to her as Barbash since that is the name she went by at the time and the name listed in court documents). The women recounted a deep friendship that turned to sisterhood which then turned dark.

Hustlers Story

Scafaria read Pressler’s article, the filmmaker tells TIME, she “found it to be a fascinating friendship story at its core.” She says she knew that if she were to adapt this story for the screen, it had to come from Pressler’s article, rather than court documents and tabloids. This way, a character based on Pressler could serve as a stand-in for the viewer, allowing the audience to empathize with the characters. “I thought that Jessica and Rosie’s relationship was incredibly interesting — the relationship between a storyteller and their subject,” Scafaria says.

Some details of what the Special Narcotics Prosecutor called “repugnant scheme” altered for the film. Scafaria set out to be faithful to the story Pressler wrote, even cutting out the movie’s sound at one point when a recorder used by the movie’s reporter (who is based on Pressler and played by Julia Stiles) is flipped off. She changed the names of the leading women: Roselyn Keo becomes Destiny, played by Constance Wu; Jennifer Lopez’s character, Ramona, is inspired by Barbash. Her business partners, Karina Pascucci and Marsi Rosen, are loosely translated into Annabelle (Lili Reinhart) and Mercedes (Keke Palmer). Cardi B, Lizzo, and a male R&B star (whose identity is best left to viewers to learn upon watching the film) make appearances in the movie, too.

“The responsibility to the truth and what happened,” Scafaria says, “and it’s not a black and white story, after all.”

Mink coats are arguably the most popular choice when one buys their first fur coat. The lightweight and soft texture, Mink has maintained a good reputation in the world of fur. At Kaufman, we have a wide variety of Mink furs you can choose from, from every color to every shape.

If you are going for a more casual, laid-back look, we suggest wearing a short Mink Jacket. These go with just about anything, from mom jeans to a casual dress. The short Mink Jackets are great for a casual night out with your friends or going to family dinners.

Chinchilla Coats and Jackets

Chinchilla is the softest and the most delicate fur of all. A Chinchilla coat has the power to make heads turn all around you. Chinchilla coats usually come in a black and white combination but can be dyed in the colors you desire.

Because these coats come in such monochrome colors, they can be paired with a very bright outfit. A white Chinchilla coat would look great on a bright, Barbie-pink dress paired with white boots. Black Chinchilla jackets look amazing on men when paired with black denim and a plain white T-shirt. A Chinchilla coat or jacket can easily make a mundane outfit look straight out of a runway.

Shearling Coats and Jackets

Future of Fur in Fashion

Future of Fur in Fashion

If you don’t already own a fur coat, don’t you just wish you owned one? Humans have used animals for clothing for many centuries. However, the future of any industry is not guaranteed. Based on recent years, we can predict the future of the fur industry. For this purpose, we will first look at why animal fur is essential to us and then discuss the future of fur in fashion and the fur industry as a whole. Read till the end to find out more.

Uses of fur

Fur can be used for a variety of purposes. Firstly, it is most widely used to produce fur coats. Fur coats are incredibly warm and can keep you comfortable during the cold winter season. No wonder animals can easily survive outdoors without getting frostbites!

In addition to this, humans realized in the early stages of society’s development that fur is a great fashion choice. It enhances your looks and boosts your style. You can put on a fur coat and look glamourous at a party or anywhere you go.

Moreover, you can use fur to produce various other accessories such as scarves, clutches, hats, and trims for boots and gloves. You can also use it to make decoration items for your homes, such as mats, cushions, and seat covers.

 

Fur Fashion is Timeless

It is not wrong to say that fur will remain stylish in the coming years. People wear it to make a fashion statement. Those who care about their looks are often desperate to get their hands on a fur coat. They wear this prized possession every day and in different settings. Fur is certainly not going out of style any time soon.

Although the term ‘fashion’ indicates fast-moving trends, fur is a kind of timeless fashion. It has slow-moving trends that are beyond the concept of time. Styles in other forms of apparel keep appearing in catwalks all over the world. They quickly disappear, and new styles come up. But fur is a constant in the fashion equation.

Fur coats and other fur accessories have a unique level of versatility. If you think about it, they can be appropriate in a wide range of settings and events. Fur coats go with almost all the outfits in your wardrobe. Fur accessories complement your style in the most spectacular way.

Moreover, celebrities wear fur all the time. They make frequent appearances at red-carpet events wearing fur. Prominent names from the past include Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor. Today, Jennifer Lopez, Cardi B, Kim Kardashian, Lindsay Lohan, and Justin Bieber are fur lovers.

All this might indicate that the future of fur in the world of fashion is bright. You might believe that the fur industry is everlasting since there is a constant demand and a renewable resource in the form of animals. However, the industry faces some opposition from animal rights activists.

 

What do Animal rights activists have to say?

Recently, fur has become a very controversial issue. It has become a hot topic for many debates. Organizations such as the World Wildlife Foundation (WWF) and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) are spreading negative word about furs and the use of animals. They claim that this is a violation of animal rights and is extremely unethical. Our simple explanation to justify the use of fur is that humans have been programmed by nature to use animals for their own needs. Why not stop eating meat then?

In addition to this, fur is a renewable resource. We can make this industry a sustainable one by ensuring that endangered animals are not hunted. The most commonly used animals for fur are abundant and can be farmed too. For example, there are approximately 275 mink farms in the United States, and together they produce around 3 million pelts annually. Furthermore, fur is naturally biodegradable, so it does not harm the environment by filling up landfill sites. Even if you no longer need your fur coats, you can discard them without any feeling of remorse. Follow this link to learn more about how you can save the environment by using fur.

 

Anti-fur Campaigns by Luxury Brands

Despite the positive effects on the environment, there is serious growing opposition to the use of fur. Most recently, many giant corporations and luxury brands have abandoned fur in their apparel as part of their corporate social responsibility policies. There was massive pressure by animal rights activists worldwide, which led to this decision.

Top brands such as Gucci, Michael Kors, Stella McCartney, Hugo Boss, and Giorgio Armani have started anti-fur campaigns by switching to faux fur. This is not good news for the fur industry. Some people think that by wearing fur, they are mistreating animals. This has led to a considerable decrease in demand over the past few years. However, fur-lovers still exist. No one can deny that fur is a symbol of fashion. No matter what organizations such as PETA say, people who love wearing fur will continue to do so, and being a furrier will remain an occupation.

 

Covid-19 and the Fur Industry

Another major blow to the industry was when the deadly coronavirus started appearing in minks all across Europe. A huge number of minks have caught the virus from humans in mink producing countries such as Denmark, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Italy. Some cases were also reported in the United States.

This led to the mass culling of minks. 17 million minks were culled in Denmark alone, putting a temporary halt in the production of mink fur pelts for clothing. Minks are the most popular when it comes to fur. According to Investopedia, when a woman buys her first fur coat, it is almost always mink.

Thus, mass culling has proved to be deadly for the mink farming industry in particular, and the fur industry in general. We will need to see how 2021 shapes out and how long this pandemic continues. Until then, we cannot say much about minks, but unquestionably the other animals used for fur are abundant.

 

Conclusion

There have been many ups and downs in the fur industry lately. Many organizations have made opposing claims on the use of fur. However, fur coats have remained a fashionable choice for celebrities and those who wish to show their power and status. This trend will continue into the future. Do you want to be part of it?

Mistakes To Avoid When Buying A Real Fur Coat

Mistakes To Avoid When Buying A Real Fur Coat

Fur coats can protect you against the cold winter winds and also make you look classy at the same time. Do you plan on buying a new real fur coat? The thought of wearing real fur can be exciting. However, buying the right product for yourself isn’t very simple. People make a lot of mistakes while buying fur coats. These mistakes cost a lot because real fur costs thousands of dollars. Now you wouldn’t want anyone to make you believe a fake fur coat is a real one and rip you off, right? The purpose of this blog is to make sure that doesn’t happen to you when you go to buy a new real fur coat. This guide will be useful for you even if you’re not buying fur for the first time. Here are a few mistakes to avoid when buying a real fur coat.

Top 3 Mistakes You Can Make             

  1. Buying Faux Fur Thinking It’s Real

There can be a lot of miss commitment when it comes to selling fur. People will try to pass off faux fur as real. However, identifying real fur can be fairly simple. Just by touching the fur, you can tell how smooth it is. The artificial manufacture of fur sometimes causes it to lose its smoothness. Also, the base of the fur can tell you if it’s real or not. You can check it by separating a few hairs. Real fur was previously attached to animal skin, so it has a leathery feel to it. The back of faux fur will have a texture similar to a textile.

Another way to test if the fur is real is to take a few hairs from it and burn it. You must observe the smell when you burn them. If it smells like burning plastic, then it’s a big no! If you want to know more about identifying real fur, click here to read our guide for buying real fur. Marc Kaufman is a reputable brand that is persistent in selling the best quality real fur coats and jackets to its customers.

So, don’t make the mistake of buying an expensive fur coat that doesn’t suit you. You’ll end up keeping it in your wardrobe and not wearing it ever. Here are the most common types of fur pelts:

Mink – It is the most widely available form of fur. The United States produces over 2 million pelts of mink each year. Mink fur is soft to touch and is an excellent insulating material, making mink coats the highest in demand.

Chinchilla – People prefer chinchilla fur for its vintage black and grey look. It has the highest hair density but is lightweight at the same time. Furriers can sew the fur in both vertical and horizontal directions. here are a few mistakes to avoid when buying a real fur coat. Both will give a stylish touch to your outfit.

Lynx – This precious white cat fur is astonishingly beautiful. It will make you look adorable for sure. Wearing lynx fur is the best way to look attractive, and it’s ideal for telling the world how fashionable you are.

  1. Buying a Coat That is Made from Pieces of Fur

A fur coat can be made in two ways, from full skins or from pieces. Fur coats made from full skins are of higher quality than fur coats made of pieces. Coats made from full skins also cost more as it is made out of the fur from the back and belly of the animal. On the other hand, a pieced pelt fur coat is made from pieces of pelt from parts, like paws, and tails, sewn together. This stitching makes it asymmetrical because seams will be visible, and all the pieces may not be of the same shade. Hence, when you go to buy a real fur coat, try to get one that is made from a full skin.
