Runway Photos: Doggies on the Catwalk 2016

The 9th Annual Doggies on the Catwalk at The Shops Buckhead Atlanta set the evening on fire with the latest looks by some of the properties chicest brands. Our philanthropic models and guests raised over $70K for Canine Assistants - a nonprofit that provides service dogs to children and adults with physical disabilities and special needs. Models showed off SS/AW looks by Akris, Alice + Olivia by Stacey Bendet, Christian Louboutin, COS, Les Copains, Tod's, Theory and Planet Blue. The models sizzled in their show-stopping looks but the Goldens and Golden puppies stole the show and we're okay with that. Some strutted their stuff and others were a little shy and had to be tempted with Milkbone treats.

Another show-stopping moment to Doggies on the Catwalk came from emerging designers from the Art Institute of Atlanta who showcased three dynamic runway looks. So much talent!

Bai drinks kept us cool and hydrated near a swanky a seating area by Roche Bobois. And speaking of swanky, the stage set up for emcees Monica Pearson and Grace Murphy, furnished by Jonathan Adler was fabulous. A Porsche 911 and 718 Boxter S gave an "it" factor to the event, the florals were exquisite and guests came to impress in their best summer looks. Great beats from DJ Rasyrious and perfect weather... the countdown to year 10 begins!
