Part of the officially licensed Around the World in Eighty Days: The Victorian Age of Travel journal collection, the Fashion in London Notebook connects Jules Verne’s global adventure with fashion imagery preserved in the British Library.

As the starting point and final destination of Phileas Fogg’s journey, London stood at the center of a connected Victorian world. Inspired by the novel and the London Art Fashion Journal, the design explores how travel, class and cultural exchange shaped the city’s distinctive style.

Made with specially selected 100gsm writing paper, this compact notebook brings together literature, travel and fashion in a practical contemporary format. It is particularly suited to museum shops, fashion institutions, bookstores and design-led gift retailers.
