The annual Pet Gala, established by designer Anthony Rubio more than a decade ago, saw canine companions strutting their stuff in recreated 2026 Met Gala ensembles. Held at Cineplay in New York City on May 18, the event drew inspiration from Hollywood's biggest stars, including Hailey Bieber and Rihanna.
Rubio transformed celebrity-inspired gowns and suits into miniature canine couture, a process he described as both "exhausting and exhilarating." Each look was carefully selected and tailored to its four-legged model, ensuring thematic accuracy and masterful artistry.
Models like BeBe the Pekingese wore a version of Anne Hathaway's gown, while Kima the Chihuahua sported a Beyoncé-inspired beaded dress and cape. Other notable recreations included George the dachshund in A$AP Rocky's attire and Priscilla the Brussels Griffon channeling Stevie Nicks.
