About BarkNBoujee
Meet the Atlanta based designer behind the exquisite designs of BarkNBoujee.
From a professional
background in Graphic Arts, to the creative world of Canine Couture Fashion,
Barbara Merrifield isn’t your typical designer. The world of canine fashion was
born from an almost maniacal obsession to outfit her furbaby Zoey in functional
yet fashion forward harnesses.
“I couldn’t find anything that fit my style. I had no background
in fashion design other than watching my mom sew, but I decided to give it a
go. I made cute harnesses for Zoey then dresses with the aid of YouTube
tutorials. I think my professional background in Graphic Arts, gave me a keen
analytical eye for
fashion and the artistic capabilities to handcraft luxury couture, plus I’m a
fast learner.” Barbara says.
In 2016 Barbara
Launched her brand “BarkNBoujee® “, a year later “Barbara” was already making
waves in a notoriously difficult industry. As well as exhibiting her award
winning designs at competition pet fashion shows around the nation.
