Dine with Your Feline: Fashion Icon Jenna Lyons Teams Up with Fancy Feast for Luxe Cat-and-Human Dinnerware

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 28, 2024 – In a delightful twist that’s sure to make cats’ whiskers twitch and their humans purr with delight, Fancy Feast, America’s beloved gourmet cat food brand, is taking feline dining to new heights. The company has partnered with fashion maven and newly minted Real Housewives of New York City star, Jenna Lyons, to create a limited-edition dinnerware collection that’s truly the cat’s meow.

Aptly named “Set for Delight,” this exclusive collection features matching dishes for both cats and their human companions. Yes, you read that right – you can now dine in style alongside your feline family member! The set includes four plates for humans and four plates for felines, all featuring whimsical cat-themed designs drawn by Lyons and inspired by her own trio of feline muses: Charlie, Rimba, and Roo.

Building on the success of the Fancy Feast cookbook, launched in 2021, and Gatto Bianco, the brand’s pop-up trattoria (for humans!) in 2022, the “Set for Delight” collection is the newest way that Fancy Feast is showing cat owners the delight they can bring to cats at every meal.

A Feast for the Senses

For those wondering what to serve in these chic new dishes, fear not! The collection also includes a curated selection of Fancy Feast’s most popular offerings, including Gems, Petites, Medleys, and Broths. With these delectable bonuses served up on appropriately fancy dinnerware, your feline friend will have some truly Fancy Feasting ahead.

“My cats are truly the heart of our home. We treat them like gold and shower them with love, starting with their favorite Fancy Feast recipes,” said Lyons. “I call them my ‘little goldies.’ I can’t wait for more cats and their owners to enjoy the “Set for Delight” collection and make more memories over delicious meals, just as I have with mine.”

Fashion Icon and Real Housewife

Lyons, the creative powerhouse behind J.Crew’s renaissance and now CEO of beauty brand LoveSeen, brings her signature style to this unique collaboration. Known for her geek-chic quirkiness and ability to mix unexpected elements, Lyons has recently added another unlikely pairing to her repertoire: fashion icon and Real Housewife.

As a somewhat reluctant seeming cast member of The Real Housewives of New York City, Lyons has been making waves in the reality TV world. “I don’t want it to become my defining moment,” Lyons confessed in a recent podcast interview, highlighting her desire to maintain her identity beyond the show. Her authenticity and unwillingness to conform to expectations is evident on screen and in her collaboration with Fancy Feast.

From J.Crew to Cat Cuisine: The Jenna Lyons Effect

During her 27-year tenure at J.Crew, Lyons became known as “the woman who dresses America.” Her influence on fashion can’t be overstated – from popularizing the “arm party” of stacked bracelets to making leopard print a neutral and bringing sequins into daytime wear. Lyons’ unique vision transformed how Americans approach style, mixing high and low, classic and quirky, with effortless cool.

“This collection allowed me to bring together two of my passions – designing beautiful objects and my cats,” Lyons enthused. “Mealtime is a special bonding moment for cats and their owners – myself included!”

It’s clear that whether she’s navigating the drama-filled world of reality TV, revolutionizing American fashion, or designing chic dinnerware for cats and humans alike, Lyons brings her unique perspective and style to everything she does.

Style From the Catwalk Meets the Cat Bowl

Lyons has infused her distinctive flair into each “Set for Delight” collection piece with her hand-drawn design accents. The result? A set of dishes that’s as stylish and beautiful as it is functional, proving that even mealtime can be a fashion statement – for both you and your feline companion.

But it’s not all about looks. The collection was developed with input from Purina’s pet behaviorist Dr. Annie Valuska and in-house Chef Amanda Hassner, ensuring that the dinnerware is as cat-friendly as it is aesthetically pleasing. Made from high-quality ceramic, these plates are stylish and practical – they’re dishwasher-safe, microwave-safe, lead-free, and BPA-free, making them as safe and convenient as they are chic.

It’s this attention to detail that sets Lyons apart, whether she’s designing fashion, creating faux eyelashes for her beauty brand LoveSeen, or now, crafting the perfect dining experience for cats and their humans.

The Limited Edition Means You Need to Act Fast to Get your Paws on This Offer

What’s Next for the Quintessential Queen of Quirky Chic?

As Lyons continues to surprise and delight with her ventures, one can’t help but wonder: what’s next for the woman who dressed America? With this foray into pet dining, could we soon see cats strutting around in Lyons-designed button-downs and mixed prints? Will the woman who made sequins for daytime a thing now make bow ties for tabbies the next big trend?

Whatever comes next, one thing is certain: in the world of Fancy Feast and Jenna Lyons, Love is in the Details® – and now, it’s on your dinner table too! So whether you’re a cat lady (childless or otherwise), a feline-loving fashionista, a design enthusiast, or just someone who appreciates the finer things in life, this collection is sure to have you Set for Delight.

Perhaps Lyons will decide her next move while chatting over a perfectly plated meal shared with Charlie, Rimba, and Roo.
