BARRON WELCOMES FROM LAS VEGAS, NEELY NEU, DESIGNER OF CHIEN VIVANT COUTURE

BARRON WELCOMES FROM LAS VEGAS, NEELY NEU, DESIGNER OF CHIEN VIVANT COUTURE THE CREATOR OF THE WORLD'S MOST EXTRAORDINARY COUTURE BEDS FOR DOGS & WHO ALSO UNIQUELY OFFERS HER MOST DISCERNING CLIENTELE FULL SIZE MATCHING BEDS!

With years of interior design expertise and with sensitivity to fashion and style, these idea's were born out of necessity.

Neely Neu, the founder & designer of Chien Vivant Couture, is once again charting new territories in an ever changing landscape in design. Chien Vivant Couture plays a lead role in chien's fashion for LAVISH beds and EXQUISITE accessories.

Always a few steps ahead in fashion and style, Chien Vivant Couture tops the unexpected in the world where beauty and style expresses unspeakable value through its latest introduction of magnificent new haute couture for chiens LAVISH bed's, bedding, and EXQUISITE accessories.

The Summer 2009 Collection presents a brilliant statement with strong designs. Chien Vivant Couture collection is dedicated to the fanciest of dogs with the use of lavish fancy fabrics, and solid bed structures. Resulting from indepth research and forecasting market change. Always respecting chien's needs for comfortable and exquisite with creativity, innovation, and quality in each individual bed. This exquisite pleasure of color, texture, and elegance found in the unusual collections of fabrics from the most exotic places on the globe including but not limited to Brazil, India, and Italy. These beds are for the privileged chiens and for those who care deeply for there furry friends. Take pleasure that you alone have the privilege of satisfying your most discriminating tastes for your chien.

The iconic "CVC" is unmistakably the signature of Chien Vivant Couture.

It was January 2009, a late Tuesday evening, when my son, Tom, appeared at my door with a black cocker spaniel. He looked at me and said, "This is for you mom." I was so surprised, I never have had a dog before. To make me feel good, my son told me, "this is the same dog that Oprah has." I then decided to name my chien "Koko". My first thought was great he is black and fits perfectly with my home decor, but then my second question, and natural thought, for my son was, where will Koko sleep? Immediately I started searching for dog beds that would fit with my home and decor. Needless to say I was not able to find a bed that could fit with my decor or design. My son then told me, "why don't you design Koko a lavish glamorous bed like you always design for your clients" using the exquisite fabrics, colors, and textures that my clients always love so much. The rest as we all say is history. The result, Chien Vivant Couture was born.

Designer Pet Clothing and More from Barrons House of Treasures

2009-03-12T13:09:00.000-07:00

POMPANO BEACH, FL: Barron’s House of Treasures LLC was founded in 2005 and began as an Outdoor Market Location in Palm Desert, California. Named for “Barron,” a pampered Bichon Frise, who is prominently featured throughout the website, he was immediately recognized as its model and “Bark-person!” Barron visits his namesake store almost every day and attends trunk and other events, promoting doggie style and elegance and his new additions.

Initially, clothes were designed and made for just for him and showcased at the outdoor venue. Soon Barron’s popularity increased and he was asked to appear in couture clothing by such featured designers as world-renowned Emma Rose Designs of Rhode Island and One Lucky Dog Couture, Miami Beach. His Swarovski crystal encrusted accessories include leashes, collars and coats that were specially designed by Chien Coature of Wisconsin. Barron appeared on the runway show, featured on CNN, at the 2008 Los Angeles Luxury Pet Pavilion event. He appeared at the 2008 ARF Awards, held in Rancho Mirage CA and hosted by Film Star Shirley Jones and her husband Marty Engels.

Barron’s website features some 4,800 items. These range from “affordable” clothes to one-of-a-kind designer couture: coats, dresses, sweaters, shirts, carriers, strollers, toys and accessories, and even furniture! The selection is first quality, price-conscious and is always being enhanced. “Barron” also recommends harnesses not leashes and has a number of styles to meet a doggie-parent’s need for both functionality and style.

Barron’s House of Treasures LLC prides itself on being a unique boutique with many unusual items being added from time to time. The selection is always fresh and changing.

Other renowned designers featured by Barron’s House of Treasures LLC and Le Doggie Boutique include: From Australia, “Bellatutu Dog Couture Collection, by Downtown Doggy” and “Jelly Bean Dog Couture by Downtown Doggy” From New York, “Deni Alexander Canine Couture Designs,” From Dallas, “Hedy Manon,” From Los Angeles, “Hip Doggie,” “Monkey Daze,” and “Ruff Ruff Couture of Beverly Hills”

Barron says, "This is a great article on our "Signature Couture Dog Clothing" Designer, Carol Blanchette!

Come visit http://www.barronshouseoftreasures.com/ to see her fabulous couture works of art in the doggie fashion world!

Pooch CoutureEmma Rose designs for the discerning furshionistaby Nicole Feliciano

Carolina Herrera, Donna Karan, Stella McCartney. These are typically the female designers we think of when conjuring up visions of jaw-dropping gowns. Add a new name to the list: Carol Blanchette the creative force behind Emma Rose Designs. But this designer isn't dressing Angelina or Penelope or Jen for a night at the Oscars. Instead, Blanchette caters to the doggie elite.

Sewing appears to be in Blanchette's blood. She learned the craft from her mother and in turn taught her own daughter to sew. Over the years, her sewing machine has rarely stopped. That is until 1995 when Blanchette took a self-imposed hiatus from needle and thread.

Retirement didn't sit well with Blanchette. She quickly bored with life away from fabric and fashion. Thankfully, Emma, her beloved poodle served as a source of inspiration. One winter when Blanchette thought Emma looked cold, the seamstress set about sewing her dog a spiffy coat.

What started out as a small functional project, soon took on a life of its own. "The dog clothes sort of snowballed," says Blanchette. Her daughter, Sherry Raposa, got into the act and Raposa's dog, Rosie, began to dress like a starlet too. When the dogs and owners went out on excursions they attracted plenty of attention. As interest in the doggie designs grew, Blanchette and daughter began to take commissions.

Emma Rose, named after the founders' dogs) was formed by the mother-daughter team in 2000. In the seven years they've been in business, the duo has expanded to include: pet sweaters, carriers, puppy purses, soft dog blankets, and much more to their line of fashions. But the couture clothing remains the lifeblood of the company.
W
hat exactly does "doggie couture" mean? Most dog clothes are readymade at a large sewing factory. Unlike these mass-produced garments, an Emma Rose couture design is pieced and sewn by hand. According to Blanchette, these dresses and coats are made to specific measurements to fit a particular dog with style and panache.

Sharon Yow, President of Pawsh, Inc. and owner of Pawsh Pet Boutique, raves about the workmanship of Emma Rose designs. Yow discovered the brand at the 2007 New York Pet Fashion Week. The doggie boutique owner fell in love with the quality and construction of the fashion-forward designs. "The detailing in the couture-wear is gorgeous... these clothes are nicer than the clothes I have in my closet," says Yow. The Emma Rose fashions proved so popular with her customers that Yow decided to carve out a special space in her shop to showcase the collection.

Yow does custom fittings at her store to facilitate Emma Rose couture orders. Blanchette trained Yow in the art of the measuring dogs for a perfect fit (according to Blanchette it requires very precise measurements for the best finished product). After the measurements are compiled, Yow sends the orders to Blanchette and a few weeks later the garments are shipped south for final fittings on the dogs.

Special occasion pieces--for weddings, formal parties and for "just plain showing off"--are really what attract her clientele. "My clients love the high-end pieces," says Yow. Top sellers include black and silver evening gowns and lacey cotillion dresses.

Whey asked why her clients splurge for expensive custom gowns, Yow says it's about the fit and the experience. "The fit will be wonderful. Carol takes into account the needs of different breeds," says Yow. According to retailer, the level of customer service both she and her clients receive from Emma Rose is exceptional.

Headquartered far from the hustle and bustle of New York City's fashion district, all the work is done in Blanchette's 1800-square-foot Rhode Island home. There aren't any forms or patterns in the studio - just sewing machines and yards and yards of fabric. Since Blanchette and her daughter don't use patterns, basic sewing can take days. On average each custom piece requires two days of work. Despite the time investment, Blanchette refuses to outsource any of her garments' production.

As Blanchette tells it, fabric is crucial in the construction of the collections. Blanchette says she moves around the fabric and touches it - then the inspiration comes. To find the best materials, Blanchette and her daughter scour New England estate sales hunting for vintage treasures (the duo vow never to order from overseas).
The designer turns up her nose at the fashions found in large-box retailers where most of the clothes are mass-produced in China. In addition to fine fabric, Blanchette believes in sweating the details.
For the more intricate work, such as beading, Blanchette uses a large magnifier. With thread in hand, she'll work for an hour at a time, hand knotting each crystal Swarovski bead onto a wedding gown.

Blanchette seems to have an infinite store of ideas. There are more than 300 items in the Emma Rose collection and new ideas pop up every day. Special requests are greeted with a can-do attitude. They've matched up wedding gowns for human brides who want their fur families involved in wedding ceremonies.

Blanchette says she is delighted to work with owners on dreaming up canine wedding attire in tulle, silk and organza. The Emma Rose retail site shows a few dreamy creations, such as the Candlelight Dog Bridal Gown fashioned from English netting and featuring a removable train.
From a $20 casual chic dog harness to a $12,000 one-of-a kind gown, purchasing an Emma Rose design means an investment in quality and an acknowledgement that dressing your dog should be fun and fantastic. As Blanchette says, "Our designs set you and your pooch apart from the masses."

Still despite all the effort she puts into her work, Blanchette remains slightly amazed by the demand for her creations, "This is the craziest thing I've ever done... now I'm starting to think it's normal for dogs to wear a $500 dress."

WHY SHOULD A DOG WEAR DESIGNER DOG CLOTHING?There are three reasons:

Attention, Warmth, and Pride.

ATTENTION: No one knows better than an owner how much your pet loves attention. Cute T-Shirts catches peoples eyes. They stop and pay attention to your small dog who loves it. They are friendlier when they get attention and they are happier pets. When you have your pet dressed up in Designer Dog Clothing, and go for a walk, it is amazing how many people you meet and how many new friends you can make. Something as simple as a Dog T-Shirt gets attention. Also, if you really want attention, try a Mink Coat, or a Mink Laminated Sweater.

WARMTH: Big and small pups get cold. That's why they like to lay in the sun and be outside on sunny days. That's why your puppy like to cuddle up next to you. Dog Clothes are designed for warmth, or show, or both.

PRIDE: An owner takes pride in showing off their pet. Just try dressing up yourself, and dress up your pet, and go for a stroll. You will feel much better and so will your dog. It's not just the exercise that you both get, but the feeling of pride and the attention you get will develop a friendlier personality in both of you.

HOW TO JUDGE VALUE IN DOG JEWELRY:

Most of our dog jewelry is handmade to assure lasting quality in craftsmanship, design, and stones. We select quality stones such as Swarovski crystal and rhinestones. We have our own designer and jeweler who make sure that the quality of construction will last, and we use strong fastener on our hairclips that do not break easily. We strive to create unique designs in Dog Necklaces, Hairpins and Pendants. We are probably the top company in designing and creating fashionable Dog Jewelry with quality stones, unique styles, and quality workmanship. Our motto is to give value and quality in the same piece of jewelry.

Barron's House of Treasures is now proud and pleased to be featuring our latest designer, Idawg, for our Larger Sized canine customers! Idawg offers fashionable, hip Couture Dog Clothing for your big dog. Idawg realizes that big dogs come with "big dog personalities" and with that they need Dog Clothing that reflects there bigger presence.
