The fashion featured in the Dog Vogue photo series would make any girl green with envy. Of course, it would be hard to tell whether that girl is envious of the fashion being worn or the dog wearing it. The Dog Vogue series captures cute Chihuahuas in fine regalia fit for royalty.
Shot by photographer Sophie Gamand, the Dog Vogue photo series comes hot on the heels of her Wet Dog series. In fact, it was somewhat spurred on by her first project as she researched the pet industry in New York City. As written on her website, she "discovered the unconventional world, where pet couturiers and designers compete for the best designs and doggie moms fight for the spotlight while their precious dogs showcase exquisite outfits that can sell for hundreds of dollars."
