Last year Penguin got fashion designer Ruben Toledo to do
three covers for their Deluxe Classics range. The response amongst commenters here and elsewhere was somewhat equivocal, but obviously they sold well enough, because there are another three coming soon:
Dracula,
Jane Eyre and The Picture of Dorian Gray.
They're certainly eye-catching, though I'm not sure that I really like any of them. It's also the second time Penguin has recently Deluxed and otherwise gussied up two of these books, having recently had comics artists
Dame Darcy and
Jae Lee do illustrations for
Jane Eyre and
Dracula, respectively.
