Luxury fashion house Gucci is ringing in the Chinese New Year with a new dog-themed line of accessories and clothing.
The Year of the Dog will start on February 16 and the brand is celebrating by creating an entire new line themed after it's creative director Alessandro Michele's two Boston Terriers: Orso and Bosco. The collection will feature the two dogs' faces pasted all over a backpack, large purse, clutch, bracelet, necklace, t-shirt, sweater and multiple keychains. The line includes a few kid-friendly options as well, from backpacks to kid-sized jewelry options. Each piece was created using traditional Gucci colors: bright pink, gold and beige.
