Fabulous drag dogs sashayed down the catwalk
|
WagIt's RuPaws Drag Race invited dogs and their owners to strut their stuff, and as these pictures show the constants didn't disappoint.
From brightly coloured wigs, to satin dresses and fluffy co-ords, the pampered pooches channeled their inner Baga Chipz, Cheryl Hole or Trixie Mattel.
The pups were guided under the watchful gaze of guest of honour drag star Shaar Cooterie, who hosted the fun event at Kraft Dalston Bar and Restaurant in East London.
Winning pup on the day was simply stunning Gimparella (aka Tofu), a two year-old Italian Greyhound owned by Anthony Kuomi.
"She is the queen of the resting b*tch face. She has huge ears, like huge. We get excellent phone signals in our house because of them, she’s the best.
"Everything about her is unconventional, from her ears to her personality, she's beautiful inside and out and she brings joy to everyone she meets." Said Anthony, who dressed Gimparella in a series of colourful outfits for her winning performance.
The event was organised by WagIt, an online database which helps dog owners find venues, and hospitality services which will accept them and their pets.
Nadia Leguel, founder of WagIt, said: "The atmosphere was amazing. A real example of how dogs can bring people together.
The great thing was that the manager of the venue was a bit hesitant when we first met, but by the end of the event he was having such a good time!
"The reason I organised this event is the same reason I created WagIt.
"For people to spend more time with their dogs, being able to have fun on a Sunday without having to leave your dog behind is really important for dog owners. I hate leaving my dog Lola at home!"
