Even though my friend kristin has the fun costume this year of being Max from where the wild things are....im secretly jealous and wish i could of stole her idea.. (i mean who wouldn't want to run around like a 7yr old in a furry jumpsuit with a crown?? add some booze and your set!) but i have to focus on promoting a new project im working on.. So me and my lil sidekick mia will be strolling the mall as geishas while passing out business cards... (hopefully i'll be able to walk properly in my geta)
why you ask?
(yes i know dressing your dogs like humans is a bit ridiculous and borderline neurotic.. but the truth is... people spend the money for this! i.e. my mother)
I got inspired when I took a post graduation trip to China & Japan.. where i loved/blown away by all the cute fabrics prints that japan had to offer and the insane amounts of of people who clothed their dogs..this instantly reminded me of my wacky mother her dresses her two tibetian terriers daily to compensate her sadness that her two kids are no longer living at home. After pitching the idea to the mum and buying enough fabric to create a fire hazard in my living room there was no turning back..
here are some examples of what we are offering:
doggie kimono
bento squeak toys
after many many months of searching for reliable pattern makers & manufacturers, and while loosing my mind a few times... we are almost complete and ready to go..
