I would have never thought that a purse could be made out of a sponge material, but the Zilla SS11 handbag collection happily proves me wrong. Of course, designers are beginning to be incredibly creative when it comes to materials for fashion; just consider Lady Gaga's meat bikini for a moment.
Designed by former architect Sylvia Pichler, the the Zilla SS11 handbag collection appropriately draws on industrial material for inspiration. Juxtaposing simple lines with unique fabrics, she has a hit on her hands.
