Canine Couture a first for Cape Town Fashion Week
With every new collection, designers strive to deliver something fresh, exciting and innovative to wow their fans and trend-watchers, and to present a show which will have the audience gasping with joy. For this Fashion Week, Craig Port chose the theme Faith Hope Love to showcase his designs and linked an unusual yet entirely appropriate element with his Craig Port and Miss Port couture - canine couture.
The relationship we have with our dogs - our most faithful and loving companions - is in keeping with the theme, and as such Cesar gourmet cuisine was thrilled to come on board and collaborate with Craig Port at his show at the Cape Town International Convention Centre on Friday, 21 August 2009.
Models sashayed down the catwalk accompanied by four highly pedigreed and meticulously groomed and coiffed Westies, which are the same breed famously featured on the Cesar packaging. The dogs stepped out in designer gear like collars, coats and accessories to complement the human couture and the theme of the show.
Later, at the exclusive VIP after party held at the Table Bay Hotel in the V&A Waterfront, the models and dogs greeted guests and posed for photographs under the glitter of flashbulbs. Celebrity guests included the likes of Errol Arendz, Jen Su, Nicky Greenwall, Michelle McLean, Mark Boucher, Jacques Kallis, Lindiwe Suttle, Sam Pegg and Lee-anne Summers.
