USA : Pet Fashion Week opens with a bark!
August 23, 2007 |  |
 What pets want? New York's second annual Pet Fashion Week answered this question to the hilt.
From jeweled leashes to doggy perfumes, from trendy leather jackets to shoes, the show didn't leave any stone unturned.
More than 20 fashion houses made their debut with new season styles for pets and showed how to strut your pricey pet in public.
Buyers, who flocked to the show from all corners of the world, went gaga over the exhibits. And they shopped till their dropped, arming themselves with all pooch-pampering paraphernalia.
A look at the annual turnover of the pet fashion industry will put to rest all your doubts about crazy animal lovers. The pet clothing industry brings in an estimated $4 billion a year. Still laughing?
Celebrities like Paris Hilton, who are craving to 'bite' into any kind of media attention, have given a further boost to the industry. Her chihuahua Tinkerbell even had her own book. | | |
