Selected

with fur trimming, fur-trimmed

or with a fur trim. I think these expressions, as you suggest yourself, are most commonly used where fur is added to the finish of a garment.

ah, but in the garment industry "trim" doesn't just refer to edging, it refers to a patch or all kinds of additions or decorations of any shape or position

if this is about non-conventional fashion, then fur can is not just used to trim a garment

it can also be used as shoulder pieces (as in the first site)

or even


fur-bands type thing around the lower arms.

as in the last site
