As per Wikipedia, "hair of the dog" is a colloquial expression in the English language predominantly used to refer to alcohol that is consumed with the aim of lessening the effects of a hangover. The expression originally referred to a method of treatment of a rabid dog bite by placing hair from the dog in the bite wound.

Join us for the inaugural DX Hair of the Dog Brunch featuring an intimate talk with internationally acclaimed designer Marcel Wanders.

In addition to running his studio, Wanders is co-founder and Artistic Director of the successful design label Moooi (2001).
