Janelle Funari

The Story…. How Pet Fashion began for designer Janelle Funari….. Maxine Avenue NYC began as an extension of the Funari New York runway Collection.

When couture designer and fashion consultant Janelle Funari (FUNARI NEW YORK) couldn’t find anything stylish to fit her curvy French bulldog Maxine, she began to create her own unique pieces for her fur baby to strut the streets of New York City! The collection is edgy and created for the pup owner who wants something that is stunning, but also eco-friendly, organic, hypoallergenic, and vegan. All designs are made with the highest quality materials, and tested and approved by Maxine and her NYC friends.

This season we created a comfortable mini me collection meant for you and your pup to wear to the park, called Dog Park Chic! So now both you and your pet can be in comfort and stylish at the same time! The brand is using only the best innovative fabrics with the best technologies and recycled fabrics pushing the standards in the dog apparel world. Our goal is to deliver fashion comfort and quality to pets and pet owners around the world.

The Dog Park Chic Collection by Funari was showcased in Las Vegas this year at Super Zoo to launch the collection into the Pet Retail space and now it can be seen on the runway at New York Fashion Week! The NYFW show featured sustainable human fashion and pet fashion with proceeds from sales going to charity. The collaboration between Funari New York’s innovative technological fabrics and the practicality of Maxine Avenue lines style is a perfect match. The Park Chic collection was created to fill a void designer Janelle Funari saw as she felt there was a need to create sleek modern stylish clothing for both you and your pets to hit the park in. Good Life Rescue will receive 20% of the sales of this collection. The Funari New York brand is a proud woman owned business that creates fashion with a Purpose.
