About Us

Unique, handcrafted pet apparel, sustainably made

Handcrafted, Sustainable Dog Fashion
At Wagnes, we believe every dog deserves to look stylish—whether it’s for a photoshoot, a park stroll, or a special event. But fashion should also be sustainable. That’s why we specialize in handcrafted, upcycled dog apparel, turning pre-loved fabrics into one-of-a-kind outfits designed for both style and comfort.
 
From Refashion to Wagfashion, we make fashion with a conscience.
 
Sustainable Style for Every Pet
Wagnes was born from a passion for pets, fashion, and sustainability. Co-founders Paula Munson and Sophia Khuc began designing custom outfits for their own small dogs—each with unique sizing needs—by repurposing old garments into stylish, eco-friendly fashion. What started as a creative solution soon became a brand known for custom, sustainable pet apparel that makes pets look and feel fabulous.
One-of-a-Kind, Handcrafted Dog Clothing
Each Wagnes piece is thoughtfully designed using recycled materials, ensuring creativity and sustainability go hand in hand. Whether your pet needs a show-stopping look for a red-carpet event, a photoshoot, or a casual day out, we create pet clothing that blends style, comfort, and eco-conscious craftsmanship.

Paula Munson

Co-Founder & Designer | Wagnes Fashion

For Paula, fashion has always been about self-expression, craftsmanship, and storytelling—and that passion naturally extended to her beloved toy poodle, Gidget. Struggling to find clothing that captured Gidget’s bold personality, Paula took matters into her own hands, designing and sewing one-of-a-kind garments that celebrated her pup’s uniqueness.
 
What started as a personal mission soon gained attention—wherever Paula and Gidget went, people stopped to ask where they could find such elegant pet fashion. Inspired by this demand, Paula spent years refining her sewing and design skills, curating exquisite materials from around the world, and mastering the art of bespoke pet couture.
 
With a vision for excellence, she developed a signature full-back and chest-piece design, ensuring every Wagnes garment is as beautifully constructed as it is functional. Today, each piece is handcrafted and finished with the unmistakable Wagnes blue snap, a mark of quality, artistry, and individuality.
 
Paula believes that every dog is extraordinary, and its clothing should be, too. With a commitment to high fashion, craftsmanship, and custom design, she ensures that every pet can strut in style, turning heads and making a statement.

Sophia Shen

Co-Founder & Designer | Wagnes Fashion

Artistic expression and passion have always been at the heart of Sophia’s journey. With a BFA in Metals from the University of Washington and a Graduate Gemology certification from GIA, she spent over 17 years in the jewelry industry, designing unique pieces for clients worldwide.
 
Although Sophia built a career crafting exquisite jewelry, her love for fashion extended beyond gemstones—right into her own home, where she designed stylish, custom pet wear for her beloved small-breed dogs. However, she quickly realized that most off-the-rack dog clothes didn’t fit her pups properly, leaving limited options for those with unique sizing needs.
 
Determined to create a solution, Sophia taught herself the art of sewing and began designing handmade, custom-fit pet fashion that blends style with practicality. Today, her creations embody the perfect balance of fashion, comfort, and sustainability.
 
Sophia believes that every pet—big or small—deserves to strut in style. With a commitment to high-quality craftsmanship and custom design, she ensures that every pup and kitty feels comfortable, confident, and, of course, “fabulous.”

Agnes

Grande Dame | Wagnes Fashion

Agnes is the heart of Wagnes—after all, you can’t have Wagnes without Agnes. As the oldest and wisest of the pack, she’s the ultimate morale booster, always wagging her tail and spreading joy wherever she goes. A true Bichon Frise in both looks and spirit, Agnes thrives on attention and loves dressing up for any occasion. Known for her charming ability to sneeze on demand and impressive skill of recognizing toys by name, Agnes is as playful as she is regal. As the inspiration behind the Wagnes name, she continues to lead the pack with grace, cheer, and an unmistakable love for Brie cheese.

Zoey

Public Relations | Wagnes Fashion

Zoey is a true crowd favorite—a tiny bundle of love who wears her heart on her sleeve. Always eager to greet you with kisses and tail-wagging excitement, she wins people over instantly, making her the perfect fit for public relations. With her munchkin face and petite frame, most store-bought clothes don’t fit her, which inspired her mom’s passion for creating custom, perfectly tailored outfits just for her.

Pixie

Model | Wagnes Fashion

Pixie is runway royalty—tiny, poised, and effortlessly chic. With her petite Maltese frame and striking heterochromia (one blue eye, one brown), she commands attention wherever she goes. She adores dressing up, knowing that every outfit signals a glamorous adventure. But beneath her regal exterior lies a bold and opinionated diva who always gets her way. With the attitude of a supermodel and a love for couture, Pixie proves that fashion is not just worn—it’s owned.

Bentley

Model | Wagnes Fashion

Bentley is handsome, playful, and always the center of attention. Built like a tank but full of charm, he’s a social butterfly who loves showing off his latest outfit—especially when it matches his aunt Pixie’s. Clothes have been part of his life since day one, and he wears them confidently.
Despite his muscular build, Bentley is a goofball at heart. He proudly parades stolen toilet paper through the house and is always ready for a game of tug-of-war. With expressive eyes and an endless appetite for fun (and treats), he brings a big personality and even bigger laughs to the Wagnes family.

Frankie

Model | Wagnes Fashion

Frankie is your classic long-legged, tiny-waisted runway model—graceful, stylish, and always ready to strut her stuff. She’s still perfecting her poses for Mommy but is catching on fast (especially with plenty of treats as motivation). But don’t let that model-esque façade fool you—Frankie has her fair share of “what on earth is going on in your head?” moments, keeping her family and the rest of the pack endlessly entertained.

Lucky

Model | Wagnes Fashion

Lucky is living proof that even the unluckiest moments can lead to the luckiest new beginnings. After escaping from his previous home, he was struck by a vehicle—but fate had other plans. Paula, driving behind the car that hit him, rushed him to the emergency vet, covering all his medical expenses, including surgery to repair a broken leg with a metal plate and six screws. Despite weeks of trying, his former owner never responded, so Paula officially adopted him and named him Lucky. Now fully healed, he’s stronger than ever, super loyal, and thriving as part of his loving forever family.
