Dog Days of Summer Mutts and Models Dog Adoption
Combining a love for fashion and puppies,
Models will be wearing the latest in back-to-school fashion from retailers at Santa Rosa Plaza, including Forever 21, PacSun, Tilly’s Macy’s and Zumiez. Adoptable puppies and dogs from Sonoma County Animal Services will strut the runway with models. Guests have the opportunity to adopt the mutt models after the show.
From kids’ wear to young adult style, this back-to-school season students will sport cold shoulder sweaters, embellished denim and a plethora of prints such as plaid and checks, polka dots, gingham and floral. For those that love to keep it causal, athleisure is here to stay. Fun materials will be incorporated throughout outfits this fall such as faux-fur, feathers and leather. The color for fall 2017 is red, and, the bolder, the better. On that same note, silver is overwhelmingly the dominant metallic this year. Another big trend for back-to-school is backpacks that pack a punch! Today’s backpacks have evolved beyond their utilitarian purpose to be sassy with chic looks like fringe, printed, tribal, two-tone and denim with leather trim.
“The new school year is approaching, and parents and students are eager to discover what is trending for back-to-school fashion,” said Christa Williams, director of marketing and business development for Santa Rosa Plaza. “We are thrilled to partner with Sonoma County Animal Services and Julie Nation Academy to bring this family-friendly and charitable event to the community.”
Santa Rosa Plaza’s Mutts and Models event is FREE and open to the public. For more information regarding the event, please visit www.ShopSantaRosaPlaza.com.
