Fashion Inspiration Blog Series - Part 2 - Design Inspiration From The Dog World

Hi there, fashion enthusiasts! Have you ever wondered how a fashion designer finds design inspiration in the most unexpected places? Did you ever imagine that dogs could influence the creative process just as much as fabrics, runways, or trends?

Before we dive into today’s stylish canine universe, I have a confession to make. If you had asked me as a kid whether I liked dogs, I would have given you a very clear, very confident — No. I am not a dog person. Cute? Sure. Still, only from a safe distance. πŸ˜…πŸŒΌπŸ‘Ÿ

But then something changed — or rather, someone. A beautiful white Keeshond came into my life and pushed me over the edge in the best possible way. πŸ˜ŠπŸŒ™πŸ•

That fluffy cloud of joy gave me so much love that it softened every hesitation I ever had. Thanks to that sweet soul, I learned to appreciate dogs, their personalities, their loyalty, and their endless charm. πŸ₯°πŸŒΈ⭐

Except for one thing. Licks. πŸ˜πŸš«πŸ’¦

Nope. Absolutely not. πŸ™…‍♀️❄️🧊

You can keep your wet nose kisses far, far away from me. I’ll cuddle your dog, admire your dog, even dress your dog in a fabulous outfit — but the moment that tongue comes out, I’m gone. πŸ˜–πŸ‘œπŸƒ‍♀️

Now that we’ve established my boundaries, let’s get back to the fun part: fashion. Just like with the cats in Part 1, I let myself be inspired by my AI art explorations, the dogs I meet on my walks, and the hilarious stories of friends whose pups behave like four‑legged divas. πŸ˜„πŸŽ¨πŸ©

Okay then, slip into your faux‑fur boots, grab a treat (for yourself or the dog — I won’t judge), and join me on this stylish stroll through the dog world. πŸ˜‰πŸ§₯πŸͺ
