Toronto, known for its eclectic blend of culture and fashion, recently witnessed a remarkable event that left pet enthusiasts and fashion connoisseurs alike in awe — the grand launch of Devils and Diamonds. This newly found world of luxury pet accessories truly redefines canine opulence, all meticulously crafted in Italy. 

The collaboration between Molly Neice and renowned designer Lars Duelffer (DKNY, Calvin Klein) has brought forth a collection that epitomizes contemporary elegance and superior quality. Duelffer’s unwavering dedication to detail and his avant-garde approach to design have seamlessly blended with Neice’s vision, elevating the brand to unseen heights of luxury in the pet category.

At the grand opening, the exquisite pieces on display reflected Duelffer’s signature style — bold, subversive and utterly captivating. From luxurious leather collars adorned with intricate detailing to opulent crystal-encrusted harnesses, each creation was a masterpiece in its own right. It was evident that every stitch and embellishment had been crafted with precision and care, resulting in accessories that exude unparalleled glamour, crafted with as much love as the brand owner’s have for their own furry friends.

The quote from Devils and Diamonds perfectly encapsulates the ethos of the brand: “At Devils and Diamonds, we believe that every pet, big or small, deserves to luxuriate in the exceptional quality of our creations. Our brand is a celebration of the bond between pets and their owners, a testament to the idea that pets are family.” This sentiment resonated throughout the grand opening, reinforcing the notion that our furry companions deserve the same standard of pride in fashion as humans do.

One of the most commendable aspects of Devils and Diamonds is its commitment to design and material excellence. Every accessory is hand-made in Italy, renowned for its tradition of artisanal craftsmanship and uncompromising standards. From the finest leather sourced from Tuscan tanneries to the bedazzling Swarovski crystals imported from Austria, each component is carefully selected to ensure both style and durability.

It was a celebration of style, innovation and the enduring bond between pets and their owners. Devils and Diamonds has set a new standard for luxury pet accessories and as I left the event, I couldn’t help but feel inspired by the sheer beauty and elegance that surrounded me, thinking that I urgently need to get myself a dog, just so I could dress it this fabulously.
