About Remodeling





Remodeling older garments is just one of the amazing things we can do with fur. We can take an out-of-date fur and totally change it into something that looks new, without a high cost.


Just like the garments in the pictures below: the ones on the left were taken completely apart, skin by skin, and reworked into the garments in the middle and right. They are from the same fur! We just remade them into different styles.



More information





When you send us your garment, we will be able to let you know right away if it will hold up to the work necessary for a major remodel.


We also do minor alterations in which the style remains relatively the same, but the coat can be made to fit you better.  We will guide you in this remodeling process, every step of the way. We are here to help you enjoy your furs again!

Fur Remodeling



Natural Lunaraine Mink Coat
(original coat)



Natural Lunaraine Mink Anorak with Double-fur Hood
(2022)



Jerry painstakingly remodeled this beautiful Sorbara coat into an equally beautiful anorak. He made sure to keep the design from the bottom of the coat into the bottom of the jacket.



Dyed Red Sheared Mink Coat (original)



Dyed Red Sheared Mink Short Coat with Hood (2021)



We shortened the coat (on the left) and made it into a short coat with a zipper and double-fur hood (above). There was enough fur left over for a vest with a cashmere back (on the right).

Natural Lunaraine Mink Blanket and Pillows (2020)



The original coat was taken completely apart and resewn into a rectangular blanket. The sleeves were used to make two pillows. The leftovers made three additional mini-pillows, one scarf and two cellphone holders. Nothing is wasted!

Natural Lunaraine Mink Vest reversible to Beige Micro Gabardine (2020)



We made two reversible vests from the original coat: one each for mother and daughter.



Natural Mahogany Mink Coat (original)



Natural Mahogany Mink Jacket with Hood (2020)



We can turn one coat into two completely different garments: in this case a hooded jacket and vest.

Unplucked Beaver Coat (original)



Unplucked Beaver Blanket and Pillows (2020)



Remodeling an old fur garment into a blanket and pillows is a great way to keep a nostalgic fur piece and make it useful again!



Natural Russian Sable Coat (original)



Natural Russian Sable Short Coat (2019)



We can remodel any type of fur. We carefully inspect the original garment to make sure that it can be remodeled into something new and exciting.
