Agnes B. Mook

The first ever Agnes b. mook will be released on 19 February in Japan. Costing only 1200yen, it will come with a large canvas tote (29.5x44cm) and heart charm. The features include actress Miki Nakatani modelling the spring/summer 2010 collection, a retrospective of the brand's history and the debut collection of the new To B. line, which is aimed at a more youthful audience. You can pre-order this at Kinokuniya stores in Singapore. Check out the official website for the mook here.


Agnes b. fans may also want to get hold of the March issue of Steady magazine (due out on 6 February in Japan) which comes with a small Agnes b. lunch tote. Check out the video clip here!

Candygal, where did you order from? I went to the Bugis Kinokuniya and the staff told me they do not do any pre-orders for mooks, no date of release, and I will have to call back to check again. :(

hi engeng,
You should try the Kinokuniya at Ngee Ann City. They definitely take pre-orders for mooks. Can call them to reserve.

The staff told me that Ngee Ann City does not take preorders too. But I shall try there since you guys have already done so before. Thanks a million :D

hi. may i ask if the agnes b tote is an inspired item made by the Japanese or by the authentic agnes b company. because its too good a deal to get a free agnes b tote just by buying a magazine when you need to pay few hundred to get one.

hi,
The mook is published by a Japanese publishing company (same one that publishes magazines like Sweet, Spring, Steady etc.) in collaboration with Agnes B. These mook bags are designed also in collaboration with the Agnes B. company (the mook comes with a message from Agnes B. the designer herself) but as for who actually makes them, I would not know except that invariably such items are made in China. The again, many high end luxury brands manufacture their products in China these days too. The quality is of course not the same as the Agnes B bags that cost several hundred dollars in the retail stores.
