Every time Deadly Ponies drops a new handbag collection, we pay attention. Their latest, the Spring 2018 range entitled Flores, dives into an exotic palette of textures and colours inspired by Botticelli’s Primavera and Ovid’s poem, Metamorphoses.

The collection is expressed in a palette of blush Clay, Duck Egg and Nightshade, and, in exploring the mythical transformation from human to flora (a symbolism presented through this season’s unique and innovative designs), hones in on an array of sumptuous textures like Capra Python, Ostrich and Deadly Ponies’ signature Croc-embossed bovine leather.

Amongst the various styles is a smattering of ring- and round-handled designs that buy into the unrelenting handbag trend — particularly the Mr Tulip and Mr Stitcher in midi and micro. With the option to simply mix in a python shoulder strap, we couldn’t have imagined a better way update our spring look.
