We've already seen how humans are braving the elements during this wintery Fashion Week, but what about the city's more fashionable canines? Thursday night the New Yorkie Fashion Show at the New Yorker Hotel had the four-legged fashion set sniffing their way up and down the runway. Click through for a look at what's hot in dog fashion this season (sequins, feathers, fur, and fringe!)... and "yes" is the answer to your question: "Is it unsettling to see a dog wearing a fur coat?"
The fashion show—hosted by former Miss USA Alyssa Campanella—benefits the Angel on a Leash foundation, and amongst those who walked their furry friends down the runway were NBA champion Ron Harper, Bravo's Real Housewives of New York City Sonja Morgan, and Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul and Mary.
For more canine fashion, here are photos from last year's New Yorkie runway show, and the dog fashion show that cats dared to crash (classic cat).
