As pets are part of the family, of course you don't want to leave them out when it comes to the Platinum Jubilee celebrations.
And what better way to celebrate the real King or Queen of your household than by getting them kitted out in this Royal British Dog Jubilee Cape & Crown, £29.99 from PetLondon?
The regal red cape is made from soft velveteen and trimmed with plush, faux ermine, with gold brocade detail. The outfit fastens via a velcro strip.
The matching 'crown', which is also rich red velveteen, features gold trim and multi-coloured 'jewels'. It attaches to your dog's head via elastic straps and a toggle under the chin. (Word of warning: when you take it off, hide it away or your furry family member might decide to use it as a chew toy).
And don't just think this costume-fun is limited to the chihuahuas, dachshunds or bichons of the dog world. Because this fabulous fancy dress set is – like all the best brands – size-inclusive. So bigger dogs can join in the fun, too.
The set comes in small (for necks 10-12 inches) which would fit a very little dog, or a cat (though if you get this on your cat, we want to see the evidence!).
A medium cape would fit a 12-14 inch neck – perfect for smaller breeds. The large is for 16-18 inch necks – aka small to medium dogs – and the XL fits dogs with neck sizes 18-22 inches.
