p(too),
I wasn't trying enforce any political (where did you get that?) or ethical beliefs (thought I conveyed that I'm not a PETA supporter) on anyone.

It's just that AT seems to be about innovative design ideas for the home, and these items just don't seem to make any practical sense to those of us looking for alternatives. I think I'm as entitled to my opinion as you are to yours, so sorry if you took it personally.

Go ahead and wear your chaps and bunny fur, if that's what you like, it's just not my taste. I'll take the cocktail, though, (make mine a Manhattan) anyday.

Sorry to get all PETA here, but these are disgusting. Ugh!

W/all the much more tasteful options out there, who really needs these anyway? The "softy fur" designers need to get a clue, and I'm a little disappointed in AT for even showing these.

(I have to say, though, that I like the red hanging piece behind the bed in the 1st photo - now, where do I get that?)

If it's not too late to add here...

If she hasn't done so already, she must inform her apartment manager and call the police right away to report this. Design aesthetics are not the concern here, but safety is, so she should get whatever window coverings she can for the time being, ideally something that doesn't even show silhouettes and shadows from the outside and that stays against the window so there are no gaps either.

My sister, back when she lived on the 1st floor of a house, realized she had a peeping tom when she discovered a small bench below her bedroom window outside. The police did catch the guy who'd been reported doing this elsewhere, but she never really felt comfortable there again. It's a very unsettling experience, no matter what happens.

I now have 2 big dogs that growl or bark whenever they hear a noise outside, so this makes me feel somewhat safer (but may not please the neighbors too much!) Also, it doesn't prevent anyone, if they really want to, from seeing in my windows from afar.
