Each week the Fashion Quarterly team rounds up what to read, buy, see, shop, drink and eat.

1. Deadly Ponies Spring Summer '21 is here

Inspired by French designer Charlotte Perriand, the new Deadly Ponies collection features a rich colour palette traversing form and texture. 

We have our eye on the striking moss suede and the sweetest cornflower blue leather, showcased on intricate new shapes and loved styles. 

Check out the first drop of the collection at deadlyponies.com

2. The Aje online warehouse sale

Known for its statement pieces, edgy structures, and luxurious essentials, Aje is having an online warehouse sale from today till Sunday 1:59am NZST. Shop a curated edit of over 280 styles from the Aje archives, all under $300.

3. Self-check your breasts with ghd

Statistics from the Breast Cancer Foundation New Zealand reveal that many women have never checked their breasts for changes – a life-saving and straightforward action you can take in the shower every day. 

Checking your breasts is all about getting to know what they normally look and feel like, and you can learn more here

In support of regular breast checks, ghd has launched its 17th annual global campaign, ‘TAKE CONTROL NOW’. In New Zealand, $20 from each limited-edition pink tool sold goes towards the Breast Cancer Foundation New Zealand.

4. Runway for Refuge

Many women and families within our communities experience domestic violence, and the ripple effects of COVID-19 have increased the need for services provided by Women’s Refuge. 

Taranaki Women’s Refuge is holding a ‘Runway for Refuge’ for its annual fundraiser featuring many loved New Zealand brands, including Knuefermann, Chaos + Harmony, Kate Sylvester and Maggie Marilyn. Guests will be welcomed with cocktails, participate in silent and live auctions, following a runway event with catered corporate tables for the ultimate wining and dining experience. 

Support the event by purchasing a ticket for this Friday evening at TSB Showplace, New Plymouth, or donating to Taranaki Women’s Refuge.

5. Restaurant Month comes to Auckland

Restaurant Month has finally begun! Choose from over 100 menus at three set prices of $25, $40, and $55+. 

Whether you’re craving an intimate Italian dinner or a three-course Beijing-inspired feast, there’s a menu to suit everyone’s tastes.
