The Rescue Dogs Rock NYC and ChanceTV’s dazzling fashion spectacle, “Furry, Fashionable and Fabulous,” recently proved to be an evening where the stars aligned, not just in the sky but also on the runway.
The event brought together an eclectic mix of celebrities and fashion icons, a constellation of VIPs — each one adding their sparkle to a night that was as meaningful as it was glamorous.
This wasn’t just another fashion event—it was a celebration with a cause, where the absence of some familiar faces only made the presence of those who attended even more extraordinary.
Imagine a soirée where the elegance of couture meets the heartwarming cause of animal rescue—this was it. CNBC’s Ari Melber, couture designer Victor De Souza, Guess Jeans model Rachel Pizzolato, Mrs. New Jersey America Katia Biassou, Art Bodega Magazine owner Rebeca Herrero, Beyoncé’s stylist Ty Hunter, the ever-radiant Avalon Ashley Bellos in her “Sequined Rebellion,” celebrity designer Richie Rich, Tinu of Shoeholics Magazine, and the striking model Evelyn Sato, were just a few of the luminaries who gathered to spotlight a cause close to all our hearts.

This unique event wasn’t just about fashion; it was about making a statement — one that resonated deeply with everyone in attendance. The evening artfully married high fashion with a noble mission: advocating for animal rescue and welfare.
As the runway filled with stylishly adorned pups, each strut sent a clear message — every pet deserves a loving home. This wasn’t just a fashion show; it was a powerful call to action, reminding us that the world of fashion, and indeed all industries, hold the potential to champion causes that matter.

The night was a celebration of the extraordinary bond between humans and their beloved canine companions. Entertainment was as exquisite as the cause, with Inna-the-Artist capturing the essence of both two-legged and four-legged muses in her sketches, and celebrity magician Josh Pele mesmerizing the crowd. Attendees indulged in decadent chocolates by 2Bites, adding a sweet note to an already unforgettable evening.
