Dudes, Dogs, and Designer Fashions Return to the Palm Springs Air Museum for the 16th Annual Men of the Desert Fashion Show & Luncheon
Palm Springs, CA — [Wed, October 8, 2025] — Animal Samaritans is thrilled to announce that tickets to the 16th Annual Men of the Desert Fashion Show and Luncheon, presented by The Carl Jud Foundation, taking place Sunday, December 7, 2025, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the iconic Palm Springs Air Museum, are on sale now at animalsamaritans.org/mod.
Co-chaired by Brandon Boswell, Steven Henke, and David Romness, MD, and emceed by KESQ’s Patrick Evans, this signature fundraiser will welcome more than 600 of the valley’s most generous animal lovers for an afternoon of style, compassion, and community spirit. This year’s fashion show is produced by Susan Stein and will feature the whimsical theme “A Walk in the Park,” encouraging attendees to dress in Garden Chic Attire that is inspired by springtime in the park—surrounded by flowers, green grass, and of course, dogs.
The event is made possible, in part, thanks to the generous support of Brandon Boswell Diamonds, Eisenhower Health, Jan Salta, and the One Valley Foundation (the charitable foundation of the CV Firebirds).
All proceeds benefit Animal Samaritans’ Adoption Alliance Rescue Program, which has saved more than 16,000 adoptable, at-risk dogs and cats since its founding in 2011 and their No-Kill Shelter
About the Cause
Proceeds from the event directly benefit the No-Kill Shelter and Adoption Alliance Rescue Program, which partners with nearly 300 rescue organizations nationwide and works closely with the Coachella Valley Animal Campus to save pets from overcrowded shelters. From dogs and cats to rabbits, guinea pigs, and even reptiles, the program ensures every animal has a chance at a better life.
