This weeks feature reveals a fashion blog that refers to itself as “A Style Blog for History and Literature”. With a Tumblr following of 100,000 and growing, author John Jannuzzi seems to have found his niche in portraying characters from turn of the century novels, with a modern fashion twist.
Jannuzzi is the Contributing Digital Editor at Lucky Magazine, and has also worked in marketing at Kate Spade, so he has definitely garnered enough experience in this industry to come up with something as amazing as TEXTBOOK.
The Tumblr’s defining factor has to be the time Jannuzzi spends mixing and matching gorgeous high fashion pieces to create great character collages, of everyone from Hermione Granger to Estella from Great Expectations.
In between his portrayals of characters from popular novels, he also feeds us with exclusive interviews – one of his most recent being with Carine Roitfeld. Readers are also privy to great videos, including an informative short on the step-by-step process of how he makes his character collages.
