Olympia Le-Tan designs handbags (I guess you’d really call them clutches) with embroidered recreations of book covers from first-edition novels like Moby Dick, The Catcher in the Rye and Lord Jim. The collection is titled “You Can’t Judge A Book By Its Cover,” and is inspired by Le-Tan’s affection for collecting old books. Le Tan says “I was thinking there were all these beautiful books around and they were being forgotten with everybody on the Internet, so I made it so that you can carry them around.” You can see lots of the book bags here. |
These are amazing.
