Babar
First appeared in the French children’s book Histoire de Babar by Jean de Brunhoff in 1931.
One of my favourite books as a child. Babar just reminded me so of my own father – who used to wear (and I think still does) a green tweed suit which just always reminded me of Babar.
Babar is a childhood favourite, a literary genius and a style icon – god I am jealous..
