David Emanuel and His Dog

Welsh born fashion designer, David Emanuel, who created the late Princess Diana's wedding dress, was spotted in Pets at Home last Saturday with his puppy.

The designer was seen in the Newport Rd store with his new Bichon Frise. He was busy spoiling the pup with treats, toys and essentials.

The visit came as quite a pleasant surprise to customers and staff in the store alike. Perhaps one of the last people you're expecting to see when you're stocking up on dog food and cat litter is a famous designer.
