The Met Gala is a tough act to follow, but the Pet Gala may have just stolen the show.
Fashion designer Anthony Rubio threw the now-annual event Monday night at New York’s American Kennel Club Museum of the Dog. Eighteen dogs took to the red carpet to give their spin on the top fashion statements from the 2024 Met Gala and its "Garden of Time" theme.
From Nicki Minaj to J-Lo and Chris Hemsworth, the dogs really met the moment with their copycat looks.

Like the Met Gala, the Pet Gala serves as a benefit event for the host museum. Tickets into the Pet Gala were $300.
“I want people to understand that we’re not making fun of the Met Gala. We’re not mimicking the Met Gala,” Rubio said. “We’re elevating and appraising and appreciating the wonderful designs that were presented at the Met Gala by the most talented designers of the world.”
Safe to say everyone involved had a ball!
