Did you know that FIT has a certificate program in Pet Product Design and Marketing? Neither did I, but the 20 designers enrolled will have their work displayed in FIT’s first pet apparel fashion show “Bark Is The New Black.”

For more information about the event, go to Canines Parade in Couture at FIT’s First Pet Apparel Show.

Eleven dogs will model one-of-a-kind outfits on the catwalk on Wednesday, April 22 from 5 to 6:30 pm in FIT’s John E. Reeves Great Hall, Seventh Avenue at 27th Street.

The show is free and open to the public, but tickets are required and today is the last day to get them. So get your tail to the Fred P. Pomerantz Art and Design Center, Room 130 at FIT, northwest corner of 7th Avenue and 27th Street.

I can not make it to the show, but I would love to hear reports from those of you that go!
