Epona, founded by Rhiannon Davies, is a London-based project working across fashion and installation. Drawing on the folk traditions of Somerset and Wales, Davies explores devotion, the body and material transformation through an equestrian lens. Their Celtic name, Rhiannon, is associated with horses, evoking poise and a celebration of form, qualities mirrored in the brand name, Epona. In this Spring Ready-to-Wear collection, these ideas are expressed through womenswear, with saddle-inspired and equine sculptural gestures throughout the garments. From their East London studio, Davies handcrafts pieces from reclaimed and repurposed materials, creating objects that function as contemporary relics.
Having completed a BA in Fashion Knitwear at Central Saint Martins, specialising in technical womenswear design, Davies has gone on to receive prestigious awards, including the British Fashion Council Scholarship (2019) and the UAL Queen’s Scholarship (2018). Davies was also a SHOWstudio Class of 2020 winner and participated in a published interview with Sir Nick Knight and Sarah Mower MBE. Their graduate collection was featured twice in The Face. Their designs have been worn by Alice Glass, Kim Petras and Ashnikko, while their clients include Idris Elba, Kimberly Wyatt and Geri Halliwell, establishing an international presence in fashion.
