Fox fur is characterised by its natural volume, movement and lightness. The long, silky guard hairs create depth and texture, giving the fur a strong visual presence while remaining supple and comfortable to wear.
At Alessa, fox fur is selected for consistency, density and overall balance. Sourced primarily from Finland and Scandinavia, it follows controlled supply channels and strict traceability standards, ensuring uniform quality and a refined finish across each piece.
Fox fur exists in several natural varieties, each offering a distinct visual expression, ranging from dense and colour-rich types to lighter and more nuanced tones. These variations allow fox fur to be used in statement garments and refined details, depending on design and intended use.
Due to its density and long hair length, fox fur requires attentive care to preserve its volume, natural sheen and suppleness. Prolonged exposure to direct light should be avoided, as it may affect colour and lustre. Fox fur must be protected from moisture; if exposed to water, it should be gently shaken and allowed to dry naturally in open air, away from any heat source.
Proper storage is essential. Fox fur should be stored on a wide, padded hanger in a cool, breathable environment, inside a fabric cover that allows air circulation. Plastic covers and compression should be avoided, as they can damage the fur’s structure over time. With correct handling and professional care, fox fur retains its character, movement and visual strength for many years.
