The new The Brand Bible series is dedicated exclusively to the most iconic handbag models from the most important designers. Each bag is not only a fashion object, but also a symbol of style and quality.

With stunning photography and in-depth insights, as well as anecdotes about the stars who made the bags famous, this illustrated book series is a must-have for any fashion enthusiast.

The Ultimate Guide to Dior Bags presents the creative range of the Parisian fashion house, with bags like the Lady Dior, the Saddle Bag, or the Book Tote.

Author: Alexandra Fullerton is an Essex Girl by birth and former Londoner, however, she now resides in Norfolk, having done a pandemic pivot towards a more rural life. She lives in a small village with her husband, daughter, long-haired chihuahua Ozzie, and Nibbles the rabbit.

The majority of Alex's career has been spent on magazines as a fashion director (7.5 years as Fashion Director at Stylist magazine, 5 years as Fashion Director at large of Glamour UK) which meant styling A-list actors, musical icons and celebrities (including Kylie Minogue, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Sophie Turner, Florence Welch, and Kelly Rowland), travelling the world to shoot fashion stories, and sitting front row at fashion shows.

Now Alex is self-employed and has a portfolio career that combines fashion writing for The Telegraph and Bazaar Arabia, commercial styling (brands she has worked with include Stella McCartney and Marks & Spencer), personal styling, ghostwriting, writing her own books, and running a shopping platform My3Words.co.

When not working, Alex loves to explore provincial charity shops and dreams of unearthing a stash of Hermes Birkin bags.
