During New York Fashion Week, Susan Alexandra and Rachel Antonoff staged a runway show where adoptable rescue dogs walked alongside celebrity guests and models wearing the designers’ collections. The playful fashion spectacle gave Animal Haven dogs a highly visible route to new homes, with Petfinder livestreaming the event and partners extending its reach.
Why it worked: It flipped NYFW’s self-serious script by making the runway a real-time adoption engine—celebs, chaos relief, and Petfinder’s livestream created outcomes, not optics.
The lesson: Consider turning a high-pressure industry moment into a relief valve that performs a tangible act live—solve something onstage and stream the result.
