Good Morning Club- Fashionista Pets






Filmed during Pet Fashion & Trends Week, Oct 6, Alabang Town Center.

Post Event Review from Organizers

Dear Partners, Sponsors, Models, Competitors and Friends,

Thank you very much for gracing us with your generosity. We couldn't do this event without you.

Organizer's Point of View
We feel this event was a success. We measure this success based on the schedules we planned, the targets we achieved and the people and pets we made happy. Amidst the chaos backstage and online, amidst the turbulent weather, we pulled it off well. Events, even a well-planned one, can go awry. We were lucky to get help in all the right places.

Let us thank the people who went above and beyond to help us put this event together:

  • The Baby Moon Team for the organizing, selling and shows. 
  • The Baby Moon Models, both humans, pets and handlers. This is not an official group but different volunteers for the show. They came all the way to ATC to have fun and put on a great and fashionable show.
  • For Alabang Town Center and their marketing team. Thank your for taking a chance on our event. This concept was new and untested. You were kind enough to take it out there and let us pioneer it in your mall.
  • To ATC's maintenance, gardeners and guards.  They deserve credit for putting up with our outrageous fanfares. Tent lifting, table setting, clean up and sounds were all done by them. These seven manongs did they best to smile amidst the stress. They helped us set-up and set down all throughout the week.
  • A warm thanks to Paws n' Tails. From a major sponsors to an event partner, we couldn't do what we do without you. We are proud of your contestants and we are grateful for your numerous support.

In the planning, we never anticipated for things to get super hectic but they did and you guys helped us. Thank you also for the vaccination and vet support. You have given us insights on pet events that even we didn't know we should have. Doc Gino, thank you for vet support. We might have panicked without you. :-p

Pet- Friendly Couture


Pet-friendly couture is a movement advocated by Baby Moon Pawprints and Pets4Peace to ensure that pets dress accordingly and comfortably in any occasion.
Guidelines for Pet-friendly dressing:
  • Total clothing and accessories must not weigh more than twenty percent (20%) of the pet’s weight.
  • Lower stomach to genitals should be exposed so pets can do their business freely and hassle-free.
  • Pets must be able to move freely, sit or pose comfortably even when on a pedestal, stroller or carried by pet parent.
  • When wearing trails or bustles, pets must not be able to step on the trail or the trail must not inhibit pet’s movements.
  • Clothing and accessories may be snug but not too fitted or tight. The clothes and accessories must not cause physical harm or mental stress to pet.
  • In a warm climate, dogs and cats should be discouraged in wearing shoes that cover their paw pads.
  • Remember for Pet-friendly couture, our beloved pets must be stress-free and happy!
