如果說誠品書局承載著台灣圖書文化,那麼紐約的文藝擔當就是有近百年歷史的The Strand書店!創立於1927年,The Strand最初僅靠著600美金,以二手書店的經營模式起家,時至今日在寸土寸金的紐約市當中攢下4個據點,其本店更是囊括了四層樓之多的藏書、黑膠唱片和其他文房小物。不只是旅人們來到紐約必訪,也是演員、作家、設計人經常關顧、吸取藝文精華的寶庫,就連Bottega Veneta的創意總監Matthieu Blazy也在列。
Bottega Veneta X The Strand聯名托特包
The Strand的托特包一直是大家到訪後必買的紀念品品項,趁著紐約為時裝週季節揭開序幕,Bottega Veneta與書店共同推出前者拿手的編織包,能夠裝載書本的大容量托特包,在經典黑色皮革上印上The Strand的紅色橢圓標誌圖樣。
值得一提的是,The Strand的logo上有著一句:「18英里長的書。(18 miles of books.)」說明了店裡藏書的豐富,據說現在店內的書本排排站好已可達23英里(相當於37公里)!
另外兩款平滑皮革材質的托特包款,一個是與前一款編織包類似的肩背款,另一個則為短提把的樣式。以上包款即日起~9/15期間在Bottega Veneta Soho專賣店限定販售。
Bottega Veneta公開書單
可曾好奇時尚總監們的生活是什麼樣子?他們都吃些什麼、讀什麼樣的書?繼上次的Bottega Veneta質感選物,本次與The Strand的合作,創意總監Matthiew Blazy親自選入了41本書,內容包含藝術、攝影、時尚、建築、美食等各式題材:

《In the American West》為一本已絕版的攝影集,作者是被譽為「20世紀最偉大的攝影師」的Richard Avedon。時尚與肖像攝影為主要強項,《In the American West》以強烈的黑白對比刻劃出美國西部男女們模樣。
推薦讀本2:Tsutsumu: The Origins of Japanese Packaging by岡秀行
