Fashion Imitates Book Art
BuzzFeed pairs Fashion and Books in a great tribute to two art forms that go well together. Here at Padmore Culture we applaud their effort.
Jarry Lee, BuzzFeed Deputy Books Editor, is not only a fantastic books' promoter, but it seems that she is into fashion also. For three consecutive years, she has posted her "Literary Fashion is the new black!" post in the online mega site right after the New York Fashion Week. Here are some of her best pairings, or at least our favorites. Great reads also by the way. As if she choose first fine books and then pairs them with the fashion. Now we wonder about her process. Will go ask her. Keep you posted.
