There is one thing that's always bugged me about the costumes. Fur and Leather. If giving a gift of a calfskin wallet is illegal, then why are people still wearing furs and leather? Are these all either grandfathered-in old pieces or faux fur/pleather? Is there a market in old leather and fur, and are new pieces made with the "vintage" material?
Or could cloned fur and leather, where cells are cultured and allowed to grow as massive sheets of animal hide, be a possibility? And if so...wtf was it with that calfskin wallet question in the Voight/Kampff test?
Theories are much appreciated. If this is off topic, I'll move it to another area of the board. This is just something that's bugged me, that's all.
Yes, I really live in Los Angeles. Srsly. And yeah, life really does imitate art here. Especially now we've got those video billboards. No spinners yet. But I suppose that's next.
