Haute dog couture: Pet Gala channels Zendaya, Gigi Hadid and more with Met gown re-creations
NY Post
Call the pup-arazzi.
Sixteen dogs looked quite fetching in their high-end designer wear on Monday for the inaugural Pet Gala, reimagining the best looks from this year’s Met Gala.
And while Zendaya and Jennifer Lopez might have stolen the show as co-hosts of the Met Gala, Kimba and Daffodil stole everyone’s hearts.
Inspired by the stars who walked the carpet at the Met earlier this month, pet couturier Anthony Rubio created looks for fashionable canines, including his own dog, Kimba the Chihuahua. Taking cues from Zendaya’s dramatic Maison Margiela gown, Kimba’s train was longer than her tail as she strutted the dog-walk at the American Kennel Club Museum of the Dog.
Livie, a Morkie, had a supermodel moment as she channeled Gigi Hadid in her yellow rose-adorned dress. Both Livie and Hadid have been modeling for about 10 years, but the tiny ball of fluff knew how to work the red carpet just as well as the 29-year-old runway model.
The Morkie had plenty of tricks that elicited a round of a-paws from guests, including posing on a wall on her hind legs and standing on a table to show off the length of her gown.
