Even though it may seem random, 'Menswear Dog: A Dog’s Guide to Being a Man' actually holds quite a bit of merit when it comes to showing people what’s in style and how to make men's wardrobes a bit more manly. Bodhi recreates outfits seen on everyone from Ryan Gosling to Clark Kent, Daft Punk and even the Great Gatsby, while using pretty much only his three year-old shiba inu as his model -- I have to admit, he always looks pretty pleased with himself.

The creator's [Instagram](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pepa-paris)-heavy photos, along with pieces to tie in for the bottom half (as all we can see is the dog’s upper-half), depict fresh and lively outfits to inspire not only men’s fashion, but women’s as well. A recent post entitle 'The Only 4 Types of Sunglasses You’ll Ever Need,' boasts the efficiency and versatility of the Wayfarer, the Keyhole, the Aviator and the go-to Clubmaster.
