The first book on the eclectic and whimsical work of fashion designer Olympia Le-Tan. Olympia Le-Tan--designed to look like a bag that looks like a book--invites the reader to discover the scope of the multifaceted French designer's creations from her signature minaudi res to her quirky ready-to-wear line and seemingly endless collaborations with fellow artists and designers. An admitted bookworm, designer Olympia Le-Tan is best known for creating one-of-a-kind handbags resembling literary classics such as Catcher in the Rye, Doctor Zhivago, and For Whom the Bell Tolls.
After working with Karl Lagerfeld at Chanel, Gilles Dufour at Balmain, and deejaying for the likes of Kirsten Dunst, Yves Born in London and raised in Paris, Le-Tan, whose father and sometimes collaborator is celebrated illustrator Pierre Le-Tan, got her sartorial debut at the age of nineteen.
