About this Event
The runway is a staging ground. On 26 July in Shoreditch, it also raises money for homeless people's pets.
Qiao Qiao Pet Festival presents its third edition at The Tab Centre: a charity fashion show featuring new work by designers trained at the Royal College of Art, Central Saint Martins and London College of Fashion. Dogs walk the runway alongside the models. They wear nothing. This is deliberate.
The show is not a novelty. It is a considered statement about what fashion can do with its platform, and who gets to be on one. All net proceeds go to StreetVet, which provides free veterinary care to the pets of people experiencing homelessness across the UK. Every week, without charge.
Dogs attend on their own terms, without costume or performance, following BVA Five Freedoms guidelines. The position of the show is simple: presence does not require transformation.
The designers
- Linxi Liu, whose work has shown at Leeds Fashion Week 2026 and Shanghai Fashion Show 2025.
- Yidan Gu, RCA graduate and current bespoke tailor on Savile Row.
- Ming Jie Ding, completing her MA in Costume Design for Performance at London College of Fashion.
