NYC Pups Strut the Red Carpet in Honor of Vogue’s Met Gala

On Monday, May 5th, New York City’s most fashionable pups gathered at the Bust of Sylvette Plaza to celebrate the spirit of the Met Gala in style. The red carpet event, organized by NYC Faculty Housing, transformed the plaza into a glamorous, pet-friendly affair that turned heads and wagged tails.

The free public event featured a variety of charming experiences for both pets and their humans, including a vibrant photo booth, custom pet caricatures, and a special meet-and-greet preview with some of the city’s most adorable adoptable animals. Attendees also enjoyed complimentary professional portraits courtesy of NYC’s own “Pet Pawtographer,” Carmen Gonzalez.

From couture collars to designer doggy ensembles, the pups brought high fashion and heart to the city in a joyful celebration of creativity, community, and canine companionship.
