But exactly how does Reid acquire her “subjects?” Here’s an excerpt from a recent post on the Reid Peppard blog:
“I found this pigeon across the street from the main entrance to the National Portrait Gallery. It was in beautiful shape… it must have flown into the window of the Nat West building, and broken it’s [sic] neck…That area gets lots of foot traffic and tourism, so I had to act fast…”
The RP/Encore website notes that every effort is taken to ensure the creatures used are “victims of road kill, pest control or natural death,” except in the case of “the occasional feeder rat (a rat that is bred and killed for the sole purpose of feeding snakes).” And of course, Reid Peppard and her crew are currently seeking sources for organic leather, silver and gold – because her fashions are all about being natural and environmentally responsible, right?
Whether or not you’re pining for a pigeon wing headband yourself, below you can peruse through more of Reid’s ravishing rodent accessories.

You got to be kidding. Drugs have to be responsible for a crazy idea like that.
Grotesque. Gruesome. Why would an intelligent person think such disgusting things were attractive? What's next? Shoes made out of vomit?
Okay, those are some very eyecatching items. Don't let GaGa get wind of these fashions (if that is what it is???)!
Where is PETA when you need them.
Too busy euthanising perfectly healthy animals and burning down labs.
