And, before you recoil, no python was hurt in the making of this collection. Man-made snakeskin is just as luxurious as the real deal and with a painstaking 30 steps to the processes of creating this faux snake skin (it's made from goat hide) every inch has the same luxe finish as an exotic reptile. Choose from a large carry bag, crossbody or a classic belt in lavender or saddle. Editor Trudi Brewer and style director Louise Hilsz share their must-have items from the range.

Trudi's pick: Deadly Ponies Mr Boxette Python, $625.

"I love a cross body evening bag. It's fits everything I need, lip gloss, phone and credit card, but adds the most glamours edge to my standard evening look. Jeans, a satin cami and fitted black blazer with killer heels. One word Deadly Ponies - LOVE."

Louise's pick: Deadly Ponies Mr Fill n Buckle Python bag, $1295.

"The only way to wear a bag in my world is to make a statement. This large carry-all in purple and red python print works back with almost every jacket I own. So, I guess you could say it ticks all the boxes for me."
