An entourage of stylish pooches stole the spotlight at New York Fashion Week, strutting down the runway in full haute couture.

Designer Anthony Rubio, famed for dressing both humans and their pets, unveiled his spring-summer 2026 collection in a show that officially transformed the traditional catwalk into a dogwalk.

Fifteen pampered pups – from tiny Chihuahuas to regal poodles – strutted alongside one brave feline, proving that in Rubio’s world, four legs can sometimes outshine two.

Rubio said he was inspired by both opulence and optimism and wanted to give people a reason to smile.
