Watch out, Gisele! Stephanie Pratt's getting ready for her turn on the catwalk. But don't worry, she's not looking to steal your Victoria's Secret gig.

Instead, the Hills star/aspiring handbag designer will be showin' off her runway walk at next Thursday's Celebrity Catwalk Fashion Show (hosted by The Girls Next Door's Bridget Marquardt), where all the proceeds go towards helping animals in need.

Natch, Steph and her fellow celebs (like Starmaker host Kimberly Caldwell and Grey's Anatomy's Loretta Devine) are hoping to raise some serious bones -- and help abused and neglected dogs find safe (and happy!) homes -- so if you're in the L.A. area, show 'em some puppy love!

Tix are $25 and $40, with VIP packages going for $100. Oh, and don't bark at the price. After all, this money's goin' straight to the furry ones! Every last cent of it.
