Who wore it better: the stars at the Met Gala or the dogs at the Pet Gala?

This year's Met Gala theme—Garden of Time—was a bit nebulous for the stars who walked the red carpet. Some nailed it (we're looking at you, Tyla and Lewis Hamilton), while others wore whatever gown or tux they wanted to, without much regard for the context.

If the humans couldn't get it right, how could dogs, whose concept of time revolves around time for treats, time for a walk, and time for a nap? The precious pups at this year's Pet Gala mimicked the memorable looks from stars like Zendaya, Cardi B, Bad Bunny, Sarah Jessica Parker and more. And they were so cute, we don't mind if their looks didn't fit the theme.

Pet Couturier Anthony Rubio hosted The Pet Gala at the AKC Museum of the Dog in Midtown East on Monday, showcasing 16 re-created Met Gala looks. In just two weeks, the stylist superstar turned red carpet gowns and suits into pet-friendly looks. With his experience hosting pup fashion shows during New York Fashion Week, Rubio was up for the challenging task.

"I love to challenge myself," Rubio says. "The designers for The Met Gala have months to create their looks for celebrities to shine on the red carpet. I have two weeks to recreate them and for dogs. When I design for my Fashion Week runway shows, it's all my aesthetic. For The Pet Gala, I have to figure out how to translate garments worn by humans onto our four-legged stars. Humans can suffer for their fashion, but dogs will not. Their comfort and safety is my top priority. It's a challenge I'm always up for. I thrive under the pressure."

Thrive indeed. The looks dazzled with sequins, ruffles and perfect tailoring, ensuring that every dog had their day.
