Syracuse's Fall 2016 Fashion Week kicked off on Wednesday with its first ever dog fashion show.

Syracuse Fashion Week put on its first runway show of the season on Wednesday and instead of strutting their heels and bags, the models showed off their paws and tails.

The event, “Dressed To The K-9’s,” was Syracuse’s first dog fashion show. It took place in Perseverance Park between Armory and Clinton Squares. The outdoor show was free to attend and free to enter.

Lisa Butler, executive director of Syracuse Fashion Week, said the idea for this event came from the Office of Innovation at City Hall.

Creatures of the Wind and Richard Chai Love lead the pack for the fall 2013 collections.

The Fall 2013 season kicked off yesterday in NYC with BCBG Max Azria, Creatures of the Wind, Richard Chai Love, and Rachel Comey as some of the standouts from the first day. 

Creatures of the Wind were lauded for their sparkly Tabitha Simmons/Swarovski collaboration shoes, with popular fashion news site Fashionista proclaiming the clothes the most "cohesive, mature and wearable" that the team has made to date. Richard Chai took a different route than he normally does and went with a more buttoned-up, military-style collection.
