Dior’s newest marketing campaign simply dropped, that includes the brand new guide totes (modelled by writers and… ‘lit-fluencers’?) photographed at Paris’s well-known bouquinistes stalls alongside the Seine – a wise option to faucet into the zeitgeist for guide golf equipment and performative studying.
The Dior guide totes do retail for £2650* (or a small one for £2400*) regardless of the furore about how they’re truly made. However there are different choices for mere mortals.
Daunt’s sturdy canvas baggage (£15, under)) are created from natural cotton by Re-wrap, a social enterprise based to enhance the lives of rural ladies and farmers in India. They give the impression of being good, are a great dimension and are properly made. They’re presumably already extra trendy than the Dior ones.
The London Overview of Books bag is rather less twee (I like these new graphic stripes). It’s equally properly designed and if you happen to get it from the shop in Bloomsbury, you may show it subsequent to you within the (glorious) adjoining St John Cafe whereas performatively studying the newest Fitzcarraldo Version. (Aspect notice: tragically, this Fitzcarraldo tote is out of inventory.) And if you happen to don’t wish to put your guide tote on the ground, don’t neglect to hunt out considered one of these useful bag hooks – very doubtless coming to a Dior retailer quickly for ££££!
Me, I’m nonetheless hooked up to my – now 30+ years outdated – Strand E-book Retailer tote. Alas, the strap is nearly non-existent fairly threadbare, so I’m planning to get it changed with one thing sturdy, sturdy and indestructible. P.S. You will discover my newest guide recs right here.
