GingerNutz Takes Paris

by Grace Coddington

First published 2018

GingerNutz has made it to the top of the fashion world. The Bornean orangutan supermodel arrives in Paris for a packed week of haute couture fittings and runway shows. Fresh from her jungle origins, she must navigate the sophisticated world of Parisian fashion while staying at the Ritz with unlimited bananas. GingerNutz visits the ateliers of legendary designers like Jean-Paul Gaultier and Azzedine Alaïa, models pieces from Chanel and Balenciaga chosen at Fall 2018 ready-to-wear shows, and explores famous landmarks from Notre Dame Cathedral to Café de Flore. The ginger-haired primate secures bookings at all the major fashion houses and front-row seats at theater productions. Despite her newfound status as the hottest model of the moment, GingerNutz remains wonderfully naive as she discovers the glamorous but complex world of high fashion. This charming sequel captures her whimsical adventures through the fashion capital.
