I try not to anticipate an exhibit before I go but truth be told…this latest exhibit at the AKC Museum of the Dog was not what I expected. I thought Fashionable Dogs was going to be doggies in outfits – but that was not what it turned out to be. Still enjoyable, but I spruce up this week’s photo montage with some fashionable doggies that have lived at my house. No, my gang were never breeds but they were ‘best in show’ to me. This exhibit highlighted specific breeds that have gone in and out of fashion as the ultimate accessory from nobility to the runway. Through paintings, fashion photography, and accessories this exhibition chronicles the rise and fall of dogs in fashion. Fashionable Dogs tracks the arc of popularity of several breeds through recent history, diving deep into such breeds as the Borzoi, Greyhound, Poodle, Pekingese, Japanese Chin, French Bulldog, and Great Dane. Woof!
