Fashion Dogs is a fun, vibrant celebration of the animal we hold closest to our hearts. A dog craze has taken hold of America - spas, day camps, ranches, and retreats are popping up from New York to California. The image of man's best friend dutifully carrying slippers to his owner has been replaced by the pampered pooch, a well-groomed, superby dressed pet. Tapping into this growing market, top designers are creating new clothing and accessory lines just for dogs. This book captures the growing doggy obsession in a unique combination of archive pictures and contemporary photographs: find out what kind of dog Winston Churchill loved; see the priceless portrait of Yves Saint Laurent's canine painted by Andy Warhol; see how Gwyneth Paltrow and her dog radiate elegance; discover which dog Chanel has chosen to showcase their watch; along with many more images. Fashion Dogs is the perfect gift for dog-loving fashionistas everywhere.

Not at all what I expected...,

This review is from: Fashion Dogs (Hardcover)
I didn't care for this book, it seems to be trying to be an "Art" book but lacks focus in that, and it is way too short for a coffee table book. The pictures are of poor quality and I had hoped for more fashion for the actual dogs, not dogs as props in fashion.

Expected a bit more...despite the title,

This review is from: Fashion Dogs (Hardcover)
This is a very slim and shallow book. Since it is a book about dogs and fashion one should not expect too much. Largely ads for high end "stuff" and silly pictures of the Duchess of Windsor and her even sillier pugs. The book is very poorly designed...you have to go to the back for a thumbnail photograph with a description that is usually very poorly written and rarely dated. Appears that little thought or care was taken in the selection of the subjects and photographs.
