Max Mara is welcoming a special exhibition of William Wegman’s iconic “Dogs in Coats” photography series featuring images of Weimaraners in Max Mara’s signature 101801 double-breasted cashmere and wool beaver coats.
The exhibition debuted in Boston, where Wegman — who rose to fame with his Weimaraner portraits — earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Massachusetts College of Art and Design. The show made its way to Chicago, New York, Toronto, Houston, San Francisco and cities in between before arriving at the Waikiki store for the showcase during store hours today.
Max Mara originally commissioned Wegman to create a series of eight images featuring its 101801 coat in celebration of the brand’s 50th anniversary in 2001. In celebration of the renewal of “Dogs in Coats,” Max Mara is offering a reproduction of 30 limited-edition 101801 coats with the original silhouette and camel color. Exclusive “Dogs in Coats” notecards will be included with every purchase.
The Max Mara store is at 2186 Kalakaua Ave. Call 926-6161.

Ease holiday stress with a gift of pampering. Laka Skincare & Spa recently introduced facial and massage cupping services, an alternative therapy developed in ancient Egypt, China and the Middle East. Glass cups are used to create suction on the skin, bringing fresh blood to the area to promote circulation.
A 75-minute cupping facial is being offered at an introductory price of $99 (regularly $125), or $120 for a 60-minute fire-cupping massage that uses flame before placement on the skin to create suction. Gift certificates are available.
