LOLA AND POOCH, IN THE WORDS OF DESIGNER LOLA TEIGLAND:

​

Designer Lola Teigland started out on Seventh Avenue, designing first for Albert Nipon, then for Christian Dior. She then became writer. Lola & Pooch combines both skill sets, merging today’s two biggest trends — social media and pet memes — to promote dogs and dog causes. The collection being presented is our custom made-to-order couture line. We hope to take lots of people and pup pictures to share on social media.

​

“We humanize dogs. It’s entertaining. It makes people feel good. And it elevates people’s perception of the species so that they are seen as sentient beings and not as disposable property.”
