The book can be so many different things to each reader depending on the reader's fashion education or trend exposure. This book is part journal, part look book, part visual diary, part love letter, part enigma, and a lot of 'look at me.'" -- New York Journal of Books " The Cut: Classical literature has influenced Le-Tan throughout her life.

Synopsis
The first volume on the innovative and quirky fashion designer, Olympia Le-Tan, the book has no immediate competitors. More Lou Lou Guinness than Kate Spade, Le Tan is very much an It Girl whose star is rising. Designed to look like one of her signature handbags, this is a unique object that will delight followers of fashion and book collectors alike. A beautiful object modeled after the designer's unique designs, this is the first monograph on the fashion designer Olympia Le-Tan., The first book on the eclectic and whimsical work of fashion designer Olympia Le-Tan. 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 . 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. 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. After working with Karl Lagerfeld at Chanel, Gilles Dufour at Balmain, and deejaying for the likes of Kirsten Dunst, Yves Saint Laurent, Balenciaga, and Purple magazine, she has earned the image of a prolific designer and worldly collector with a finger on the pulse of fashion. This book offers a playful and autobiographical glimpse into the world of Le-Tan and the inspirations behind her eclectic designs. Filled with candid photographs and charming illustrations, Olympia Le-Tan presents a whimsical look into one of the most creative designers on the scene today.
