Since dogs have become a fashion lead, the accompanying sketch was done to illustrate the correct clothes to be worn when walking the various types of canine. First of the series is the handsome collie, which demands plaids. The bull-terrier’s mistress looks her best in a beige camel cloth swagger coat and felt hat. With the Aberdeen terrier, a blue-grey tweed sports suit is best, while the Dalmatian suggests spots. Nothing, not even sables, is too good for the aristocratic borzoi. The shiny silky cocker spaniel should be matched with a smart suit of black velvet with silver fox furs. These ideas of dressing for one’s dog were inspired by a smart fashion parade, known as “The Dog on Parade,” which was recently held in Park Avenue, New York.
