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

Paris was a center of aesthetic influence, where fashion expressed creativity, identity and social distinction. Inspired by the novel and Octave Uzanne’s Fashion in Paris, the design brings the elegance of late-19th-century fashion into a practical contemporary notebook.

Made with specially selected 100gsm writing paper, this compact notebook combines literature, travel and design in a highly giftable format. It is ideal for museum shops, fashion institutions, bookstores, travel destinations and design-led retailers.
