In 2001, just after the nightmare of September 11th, my very dear and
talented friend Cece Cord launched a beautiful collection of dog
accessories and clothes inspired by her miniature Yorkshire terrier
Tiger. When I asked her what prompted her to do this, she said (in her
charming southern drawl) that she could not imagine going anyplace in the
world without her beloved friend and that of course Tiger needed the
proper clothes, accessories and carrying cases to go to Vail, Texas,
Palm Beach and Europe! The rest is history, and Travels with Tiger was
born. Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus, and Saks Fifth Avenue were her
first accounts and the reason these high-end giants immediately
supported the collection was because Cece was the first designer to create
luxury products for dogs in a way that only a sophisticated designer
who truly loved her puppy could do.
I cannot forget the first time I saw the collection (I was launching At
Home with Carolyne Roehm at Bergdorf’s as well). Tiger’s clothes and accessories were the most charming, whimsical things I had ever seen. Whether a dog owner or not, one could not help but admire the beauty of Tiger’s Bavarian collection, or smile with
delight at the clothes Tiger would be sporting in Palm Beach that season.
Tiger and Cece were the ultimate pros; they did personal appearances
though out the country. In fact, (although Cece might object to this
assessment) Tiger became the bigger celebrity. Saks windows were created
around her, she has graced the cover of Town and Country, and she has a press
book that many would envy! Both mistress and pup worked endless hours to
promote the collection. During a personal appearance
tragedy struck and the little star fell off a platform and appeared to
be paralyzed. Veterinarians feared that Tiger would never walk again, if
in fact she lived. Cece refused to accept this diagnosis; with
endless care, love and great faith she proved everyone wrong and Tiger
rides again.
