Anthony Rubio Spring/Summer 2024  The only experience like it during any Fashion Week

Anthony Rubio’s Inspiration:

To begin, Anthony’s canine/feline couture collection was inspired by vintage ball gowns and formal wear from the 1950’s by Christian Dior. There were whimsical colors, glitz and glam and memorable silhouettes. It was so girly girl and while the audience loved it, so did the pups and their owners.

For the human creations, Anthony presented an executive collection that spoke volumes of an evolution of his past to present works. There were sensual brightly colored gowns of embroidered flora sprinkled with glass beading and crystals. They gay were fashioned like rock’s bad boys. Then Anthony tried his hand at sculptural pieces inspired by Henri Matisse Blue Nudes both on a male and a female model done in recycled plastic woven into royal blue netting. It was a collection of joyful inspirations making for a huge fashion party.

In every show, Anthony Rubio presents a special model with a story to tell because he wants to remind everyone not to buy but to adopt a rescue because too many are abandoned and shelters are overflowing with cats and dogs that seemingly no one wants and those animals get no say on the matter.

The featured mode for this show was a tiny Chihuahua brought in all the way from Ohio named Misty Lynn. This little lady is both a fighter and inspiration to teach everyone a lesson about resilience. Due to a case of neglect of an injury which almost resulted in her being euthanized by her previous owner a risk was taken in amputating a front leg that might have spread an infection that would have killed her. After a miraculous recovery she was adopted by her present family who adore and spoil this ater day princess. Misty Lynn loves attention and fashion and she has given us the pleasure of gracing our runway as her New York Fashion Week debut. Who would have thought this adorable little lady would rock the greatest runway in fashion? Anthony Rubio did.
