- A coffee table book that offers dog lovers more than
just portraits of dogs. Couture Dogs of New York takes the
reader on a voyeuristic journey into the New York 'Doggie
World' showing them dogs at home with their owners, dogs
dressed to kill out and about at events around the city, and
dogs in couture outfits posing in studio like fashion
models
- A full color photography book that is beautifully
designed and packaged with the idea that it sits on a coffee
table to be enjoyed. As such, it would make a great gift for
any dog lover
- The text offers insight into the lifestyle and the
motivations of these doggie 'moms and dads' who spend
hundreds of dollars to dress up their 'fur children'
- Dog owners who are interested in buying clothes for
their dogs will get much insight into the important doggie
designers in New York City from this book
- Features an introduction essay by Nadine Rubin Nathan,
and Q & A's with dog owners as well as dog
couturiers
Photographer Paul Nathan has documented New York's
best-dressed dogs, their owners, and the couturiers who
design their made-to-order outfits. While socializing with
the four-legged, Nathan attended 'pawties', 'puptials,' and
'barkmitzvahs'. He photographed married dogs who get around
in yellow cabs wearing matching outfits and visited the
homes of doggie moms and dads with walk-in closets for their
'fur children' filled with enough designer outfits to rival
any New York fashionista. And finally he chose fifteen of
the most fashionable dogs to invite to his studio along with
their favorite couture outfits to pose for this book. The
result is a giddily glamorous romp through New York's
'Doggie World' where the city's most fashionable mutts get
dressed to the nines even for a walk around the block.
