Mickey Rourke's no fool - he left London before Fashion Week started. Good thing too or he'd have had to put up with the likes of big-chinned Alexa Chung and bulldog-faced Pixie Geldof interrupting his boozing.

Here he is having it all in Manhattan. And by all we mean a blonde and a Pomeranian dog. 

What a man! Not every bloke can make a miniature toy dog look like an acceptable pet companion but Mickey's pulling it off with aplomb.

Plus! This isn't a Fashion Week story! Hooray!

Not that Mickey needs to learn anything about fashion as these pics attest...
