A dog named Tika from Montreal is a star of social networks and the fashion world. This 12-year-old lady loves to dress up in stylish outfits and attend fashion events around the world with her owner. She attends fashion weeks in Paris, New York and Milan, and her wardrobe costs $20,000.
A 12-year-old Italian Greyhound dog named Tika is a real star in the fashion world. She has a following of millions on social media, dresses up in fashionable outfits and attends exclusive fashion events around the world with her owner, 32-year-old Thomas Charpio from Montreal, Canada. The dog's wardrobe costs $20,000, and she dresses only in couture. The owner began posting photos of Tiki in fashionable outfits in 2016, and the dog quickly became popular.
Having quickly gained a large audience, Tika has already worked with major fashion brands such as Boss, Dior, Chanel, Fendi and Vogue. Many brands cooperate with the dog, making custom-made clothes for it, and also invite it to events. Tika is only happy with such attention, and happily attends Fashion Weeks in Paris, New York and Milan. And he doesn’t just visit, he also walks the catwalk.
In everyday life, Tika wears more practical clothes: overalls, jackets, boots, hats or snoods. It's cold in Canada in winter, so she has a lot of warm clothes in her wardrobe. By the way, Thomas now has two dogs - Tika has a sister, Kala, who will later follow in her footsteps. The dogs have a strict diet to keep them fit and healthy. An owner spends an average of $60 a week on food for one dog. Plus, the dogs sleep on a separate king-size bed.
Thomas considers Tika a "trendsetter" and a "style icon." According to the owner, she paved the way for the expansion of pet clothing, inspiring dog owners to dress their pets in couture clothing. Fashion brands have also begun to diversify the design of clothing for pets, creating more and more new options.
