Victoriana and recycling inspire cutting-edge fashion designers Preen, and they’ve used this to great effect to create an eye-catching new cover for The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin, in the Beatrix Potter British Fashion Designer Collection, created to mark the 150th anniversary of the author’s birth. Nutkin prances on the cover against a montage of wild flowers arranged on a black background.  It throws Nutkin into focus and makes us look again at the familiar figure, somehow adding an edgy contemporary feeling to this old favourite. Super-stylish this is very pick-up-able and would make a lovely gift.  ~ Andrea Reece

In celebration of Beatrix Potter’s 150th anniversary, Penguin Random House have commissioned five of Britain and Ireland’s most exciting fashion designers to reimagine the cover designs of Potter’s best-loved tales. Visually stunning and completely unexpected, we hope you enjoy seeing Potter’s characters through this new lens.Jo Hanks, Publisher

Beatrix Potter had an eye for fashion as well as the natural world, clothing her characters in à la mode jackets, hats, shawls and dresses with Peter Rabbit being inseparable from his iconic blue jacket. It has been a privilege working with modern British and Irish fashion designers, each creating surprising and wonderful designs inspired by Beatrix Potter’s classic tales adding their own distinctive style into the mix.
Adam Wardle, Designer
