This fall, Kate Spade New York is paying homage to its love of literature with a capsule collection created in partnership with Penguin Classics Threads and Out of Print. The collaboration is designed to spread the joy of reading by transforming literary classics into timeless fashion pieces. The Storyteller collection is part of Kate Spade New York’s fall 2022 assortment—each piece a reminder of the importance of preserving stories.
The Kate Spade New York Fall 2022 season is set in an iconic New York City townhouse—brimming with rose-printed wallpaper, cozy plaids, oversized polka dots, leopard print, and a well-stocked library. The seasonal collection is designed to encourage customers to celebrate the little things: intimate gatherings, the comforts of home, the beauty of eclectic interiors, and the excitement that builds around sharing your home with others.
The Storyteller capsule collection is an expression of that spirit, inspired by two beloved classics: Penguin Classics Threads edition of Anna Sewell’s Black Beauty and Penguin Classics Threads edition of Frances Hodgson Burnett’s The Secret Garden.
“At Kate, we believe in the power and art of storytelling,” said Kristen Naiman, SVP of Concept and Strategy at Kate Spade New York. “Each season, our collections begin with a story, which allows us to engage our audiences in rich, emotional ways. This collaboration with Penguin Classics Threads and Out of Print is rooted in the mutual love for iconic literature, which we’ve made into modern timeless designs that we hope our audiences will keep and use forever.”
“Beloved childhood classics spark a lifetime of storytelling, and the Kate Spade New York x Out of Print collaboration featuring Jillian Tamaki’s beautiful cover art for our Penguin Classics Threads editions, a series creatively directed by Paul Buckley, embodies this timeless inspiration that book lovers carry with them,” continues Elda Rotor, VP and Publisher, Penguin Classics.
Todd Lawton, co-founder at Out of Print adds, “Books transform and improve lives. Penguin Classics and Kate Spade New York are the ideal partners to work with to create cherished literary keepsakes that celebrate great books, connect readers and help to make the world a better (and more novel) place.“
The capsule collection features signature Kate Spade New York styles reimagined with Penguin Classic Threads cover artwork. The collection includes a tote, crossbody, small leather goods, smartphone cases, and a tee shirt—will launch in August and continue to release throughout the fall.
