      <description><![CDATA[<p>Luxury pet fashion is gaining momentum in Indonesia, where a Bandung-based fashion house is attracting dog and cat owners with couture outfits designed for special occasions.</p>
<p>Footage recorded on Thursday shows a studio photoshoot in South Jakarta featuring Pawstyle's  latest  collection. The brand dressed dogs in elaborate wedding-style gowns and modern kebaya-inspired outfits, while their owners wore matching ensembles ahead of a pet photography exhibition in Jakarta.</p>
<p>The collection is made from premium fabrics with hand-sewn embellishments and is designed for formal parties, fashion shows and professional photoshoots.</p>
<p>Pet owner Citra Skolastika said dressing her dog in matching clothing creates lasting memories.</p>
<p>"It's such a wonderful feeling to see my beloved fur baby wearing a special outfit, just like I am. It makes me feel like we're perfectly in sync. Moments like these are always exciting for me and my fur baby because I want to capture and preserve as many sweet memories as possible,"  she said.</p>
<p>Pawstyle founder and designer Alvin Oey said the brand was launched during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021 after years of designing clothing for  people .</p>
<p>He said public attitudes towards pet fashion have changed, creating opportunities for more specialised designs.</p>
<p>"I design these outfits using fabrics that ensure dogs stay cool and comfortable. The materials adhere to the same safety and comfort standards as those used for children's clothing,"  Oey explained.</p>
<p>He added that while the tailored outfits are stylish, they are intended only for short periods during special events because comfort remains the priority.</p>
<p>Pawstyle has expanded beyond Indonesia, with customers from Thailand, Vietnam and the  United States  placing orders online, reflecting growing international interest in premium pet fashion.</p>
