A Fashion Show for Dogs
On April 12 from 5-6:30 the grounds of New York's Fashion Institute of Technology was full of woofs and growls in the 2nd annual "Last Bark for Bryant Park" fashion show. Students in FIT's Pet Product Design and Marketing program worked hard to make the show memorable for all in attendance. In addition to the viewing some of the future fashion trends for dogs, attendees received a goody bag full of pet-related products.
Some of the more memorable designs included:
* motorcycle jacket worn by Sophie the shih tzu
* leather bomber jacket
* camouflage outfit
* sequined wedding gown (the finale)
Most of the dog models belong to the FIT family, but there were also a 2 shelter dog models. The shelter dogs are available for adoption at the North Shore Animal League.
The event was judged by Mario DiFante, and winning designs will be featured at dog events around the world.
According to Cheryl Fein, an FIT spokeswoman, "No one barked, bit, peed, jumped, growled or otherwise misbehaved."
