"Bibliothèque Bizarre" — Messy Nessy x Olympia Le Tan ®
Step inside the Bibliothèque Bizarre, where forgotten titles and imaginary authors find new life as coveted objets d’art. Designed with Olympia Le-Tan’s signature craftsmanship and Messy Nessy's penchant for the peculiar, this collection brings to life a trilogy of imaginary Parisian books — forgotten gems found on the shelves of an eccentric old Left Bank librairie; the kind you take home for their strange titles alone.
The embroidered “lost classics”:
- The Art of Paris People Watching by Fanny Flâneur
- A Pigeon’s Guide to Fine Dining in Paris by Pierre Plumeau
- The Secret Lives of Mermaids in the Seine by Arielle de Vagues
Each piece is a love letter to Paris, humor, and the pleasure of collecting the unexpected. The Bibliothèque Bizarre transforms forgotten fiction into wearable treasures — equal parts conversation starter, collectible, and keepsake.
