Every season, Anthony Rubio partners up with animal shelters and animal organizations to include dogs that are up for adoption in his show.

Born and raised in New York City, of Puerto Rican ancestry, this year Rubio decided to work with The Sato Project, dedicated to rescuing abused & abandoned dogs in Puerto Rico.


Speaking before the event, Rubio said: “In my fashion presentations, the dogs are the models and the humans are the accessories.”
