This pug can certainly strike a pose. With an unmatched talent for scenery-chewing & a mug that can only be described as fetching actress-model-pooch Charlie vogues her way through the warp & woof of history in this enchanting book of photos by Atlanta-based designer Lisa Knapp. There's no role
- male or female world leader or screen goddess
- that's too daunting for Charlie (and no costume that she's unwilling to squeeze her plus-size figure into). Wrapped in a toga she's a formidable Julius Pugustus Caesar. As Attila the Pug she proves herself equally comfy in barbarian togs. As an animal skin-attired Cave Woman she's savage. As a pillbox-hatted Jackie she's the very image of sophistication. & when Charlie doffs it all as a platinum-tressed Lady Godiva she sizzles. Napoleon Bonapug Mao Tse-Pug & bling-bedecked gangsta rapper Notorious P.U.G. are among her many other hilarious incarnations. Charlie's wardrobe
- expertly researched & tailored by author photographer & proud pug parent" Knapp
- is remarkable for the costumes' meticulous detail & historical accuracy. " Fabulous Pugs" will captivate fashionistas amuse history buffs & delight all the pug-lovers among us (and who isn't one really?)."
