“We started thinking… What are we doing for animals? And my husband, Clayton Thomas, his family, we’re veterinarians, so we decided we’ve really got to do something for animals,” said Rahm, who created a supplement line and a protective clothing line for animals.

“I wanted them to look fashionable. So we did a couture line as well,” she said backstage ahead of the show. – Rappler.com
