Four Legged Fashion and “Champooch” Cocktails this Weekend

This event’s for those of us who adore our pets entirely too much. Four Legged Fashion: Canine Meets Couture, an event put on by Fashion Group International of Dallas, is a furry fashion show-meets-charity event-meets-cocktail party. A doggie runway show kicks off the night with pooches in one-of-a-kind pieces designed by artists from all over the country. Check out the piece, left, designed by Haute Puppy for BitchNewYork.com. Each outfit will then be auctioned off during the evening. Tickets are $75 for general admission, which sounds steep, but considering the following. A portion of the proceeds will go to the three deserving animal rescue groups. (Animal rescue groups often function largely on individual and private donations rather than government or community funding, so a chunk of change from an event like this could be the difference for a lot of animals.) Also, your ticket includes unlimited access to “champooch cocktails” (Cute, right?), all the appetizers you can handle, dessert, and a swag bag. Get your tickets for this Friday, May 14 at 6:30 pm. The Grand Pavilion at the Dallas Trade Mart. 2100 N. Stemmons Fwy.
