Diggs Designs: Furry Mirrors Spark PETA Outrage
12 Dec, 2025
Summary
- Stefon Diggs launched his 'Si Vis Pacem' furniture line at Design Miami.
- The collection features five pieces, including mirrors trimmed with real fur.
- PETA has condemned the use of real fur, urging Diggs to use faux alternatives.
New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs recently unveiled his "Si Vis Pacem" furniture collection at Design Miami, an event held during Art Basel in December 2025. The line, developed over the past year, consists of five pieces, including sofas, chairs, and distinct mirrors framed with real fur, all intended to cultivate an atmosphere of peace and welcome.
Diggs expressed that "Si Vis Pacem," Latin for "if you want peace," reflects his desire for creating serene personal spaces. The collection, described as "functional art," is currently available for commission with a broader release anticipated in 2026. This blend of athletic fame and design ambition has garnered attention from fashion and lifestyle publications.
However, the debut was met with immediate backlash from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). The organization publicly criticized Diggs's use of real fur on the mirrors, advocating for faux fur instead and questioning the ethical implications of the material choice. The controversy has ignited a public debate regarding the intersection of sports, art, and animal welfare.
