Deadly Ponies

So you want to hear about New Zealand Fashion Week, eh? Well NZ is a great place to visit, see some sights, meet some really great people...but the fashion is pretty sloooooooow. And just when we thought we may leave empty handed, we spotted one accessories line to die for.

Deadly Ponies, from the collective brains of Liam Bowden and Katie Smith, connect well sculpted bags with pebbled leathers and exposed zippers to create wearable yet unforgettable pieces. Alongside bone and skeleton pendants, snake detailed rings, and of course dead pony legs, the jewelry pieces are also not to be overlooked...

The show included handbags set up in a science lab, hanging from old lab racks or sitting atop iodine jars. The jewelry came out, catwalk style, carried by zombie looking models, on plates with scattered body parts. Genius!
