Me+Em and the Booker Prize Foundation are working together on book selections chosen for the label's customers. Clare Hornby, who founded the brand and serves as its chief executive, says the idea grows out of how the house already works: the careful editing that shapes a wardrobe can also go to work on what sits on the nightstand. It's a neat idea for anyone who has finished getting dressed and wondered what, exactly, the outfit ought to be reading. From Palm Beach to the Hamptons, a well-cut jacket now comes with a reading list to match.

With reporting from WWD.
