East Village vintage
store gives your pet
the gift of style
BY BOB KRASNER
So you’ve fi nished your holiday shopping
but you just wish that you’d
gotten something funky but useful for
the most special member of the family: your
dog. You want something unique, cute,
eye-catching, environmentally conscious,
maybe even with a vintage fl air. Might be
a good idea to get in touch with Maegan
Hayward and Sara Ann Rutherford, whose
newly launched business Snacks Attack!
is creating handmade coats for dogs from
repurposed apparel and fabrics. The concept
is simple, but the name takes a little
explaining.
Recently Hayward and her partner, Alex
Carpenter, got their chihuahua as a rescue,
named her Snacks and never looked back.
Sometime earlier (1989 -1993, to be exact),
a show named “Saved By The Bell” was
running that featured a character named
Zack Morris whose onscreen band was
called “Zack Attack”. Hayward, who deals
with a vintage 80’s vibe daily in the shop
she runs with Carpenter – the East Vintage
Village Collective – simply inserted Snacks,
who is a muse more than a performer (but
is defi nitely a character).
Making dog coats was also Hayward’s
idea, but the person who made it a reality
was Rutherford. At the beginning of the
pandemic she found herself without her
bartending job, but what she did have was a
sewing machine that had been given to her
by a friend and a lot of time. Although her
grandmother was a master seamstress who
had made all her daughters’ wedding dresses,
Rutherford had never learned to sew.
“So I learned how to sew and began
making masks,” she recalls. ” I ended up
making 500 masks which I donated to
charity.” That was the start of Greenwell
Goods, which is her outlet for creating
masks out of vintage fabrics. Hayward
suggested that she expand to dog clothing,
and here we are.
The raw materials come from unsold
vintage children’s garments and unused
fabrics, sourced from Etsy and eBay but
also from local vendors whenever possible.
The coats, which start at $30, can be custom
made and accessorized with vintage
patches. Matching masks are generally
available as well.
“Everybody wants to know where it
came from !” enthuses Vanessa Monsalve,
whose dog Brooklyn sports a snazzy plaid
number with a “Beastie Boys” patch. ” I
can never fi nd anything that fi ts him and
this fi ts perfectly,” she adds. For the record,
Brooklyn silently agreed.
Hayward enjoys fi nding the raw materials
and doing the marketing and has a
simple explanation for the division of labor.
“She can sew and I can’t,” she explains,
with a shrug. For her part, Rutherford very
much enjoys ” making really cool stuff for
dogs.” Although to be fair, Hayward mentions
that their “fi rst sale was to a hairless
cat!”
