Most people who love fashion know using Instagram is a great way to keep up with the latest developments and trends. That is true not just of clothes meant for people, but also accessories and apparel designed for dogs. A quick look at four dogs who dress for Instagram success will make it clear that even the most devoted of human fashionistas have plenty of competition.
- Ari the pug
Pugs are probably not best-known for being conventionally attractive, but Ari has a way of shattering preconceived notions. Modeling with the help of her owner under the nom de couture@honeyidressedthepug, Ari manages to look great with every shoot.
While she often shows off high-end doggy sweaters and vests to excellent effect, Ari is also a natural at making canine accessories look great. Leashes like those available at pehomnyc.com, for instance, quite often add a welcome touch of color, elegance, or contrast to her carefully composed pictures.
Another of the secrets to Ari’s success has been how relatable she always seems. Some Instagram doggy models tend to come off as stuck up, just like certain of their human counterparts. Ari’s undeniably homely face and clearly casual demeanor, though, help her inject plenty of warmth and approachability into every last picture.
- Kuma the Pekingese mix
Although her Instagram account is captioned in Japanese, Kuma has amassed a huge audience of followers from all over the world. The @kumatomisoji page features nearly a thousand posts, all of which have a whimsically appealing feeling.
Kuma clearly has a thing for hats, making her somewhat of a rarity among fashion-focused Instagram dogs. Whether dressing up as Santa Claus or sporting a haberdasher’s take on a birthday cake, she wears every lid with style.
Pekingese dogs are famous for having a “regal” air about them, and Kuma’s owner loves to leverage this asset. Although never seeming stuffy, Kuma always brings a bit of elegance and refinement to the proudly silly scenes she features in. That her tongue always seems to be sticking out a bit only adds to the overall effect.
- Elly the Yorkshire terrier
Small dogs seem to have something of a stranglehold on the Instagram fashion market. Elly the Yorkshire is another representative of this trend, though probably even svelter than usual.
What Elly lacks in clothes-hanging stature, she makes up for with verve, vim, and joie de vivre. Elly’s owner loves to capture her mid-flight, though mostly after dressing her up for her latest adventure, of course.
Instagram fans who follow her @eloisecloset account will get to see Elly showing off many great pieces of handmade canine fashion. Elly’s especially expressive face helps her inject plenty of personality into her fashion-focused sessions.
- Bodhi the Shiba Inu
Lest anyone think that Instagram fashion for dogs leans too far in the feminine direction, Bodhi the Shiba Inu is committed to keeping things balanced. Famously rugged and hunky, @mensweardog could have the largest audience of all among Instagram’s fashionable pups.
Bodhi’s photos might sometimes come off as silly, but that is probably unavoidable given his proclivity for wearing clothes meant for men. Many of Bodhi’s most popular posts have him showing off actual menswear to seriously fashionable effect, though. Whether he’s putting on a three-piece suit or lounging in a bomber jacket and t-shirt, Bodhi has a winning way of looking manly.
Many More Fashionable Instagram Dogs to Check Out
These are four of the most popular and best-dressed dogs on Instagram at the moment. Naturally enough, there are many more who are vying, with help from their owners, for the attention of the social network’s many millions of human users. Keeping up with fashion on Instagram is always a lot of fun, and dogs make it even more so.
