Jonathan Anderson's Dior Book edition has been unveiled. The collection reproduces first-edition covers of 19th- and 20th-century literary classics, embroidered and printed on tote bags, T-shirts, knitwear, scarves, and card holders. His selection is guided by books that shaped him as a designer and stories connected to the heritage of the House of Dior. The list brings together his personal taste and the history of Dior in one curated offering.
The lineup spans from Dracula to American Psycho. It includes Bram Stoker's Dracula, an Irish writer like Anderson himself, Truman Capote's In Cold Blood, and Herman Melville's Moby-Dick. Eric Carle's picture book The Very Hungry Caterpillar also made the list. Most recently, Bret Easton Ellis's American Psycho was added.
Each cover is faithfully reproduced as it appeared in the first edition. The shattered-glass bullet hole graphic from In Cold Blood and the woodcut whale from Moby-Dick are transferred onto bags and knitwear. American Psycho's red lettering against a black ground appears on card holders and tote bags. It's a striking moment where literary iconography becomes wearable.
The Dior Book edition is more than merchandise. It marks the intersection of Jonathan Anderson's design narrative and Dior's heritage. Instead of reading books, it proposes wearing and carrying them. This fall, Dior's reading list offers a new way to celebrate the season. Which book would you choose to carry as a bag?
