Moleskine has unveiled a collaboration with STUDIOCANAL Kids & Family celebrating Paddington, the literary character whose curiosity, imagination and appreciation of life's "perfectly imperfect" moments are central to the new line. The collection is organised around four distinctive designs.
The range brings together a Paddington-themed notebook and three unique cahier designs, alongside a giftable bundle box that pairs a large canvas notebook with coloured pencils. A set of two collectable pins completes the offer. Moleskine frames the collection for Paddington enthusiasts and collectors as well as stationery lovers and anyone who enjoys putting pen to paper.
The bundle box, which combines a large canvas notebook with coloured pencils, is presented as a giftable option, while the two pins extend the collection into collectable accessories. Taken together, the items span note-taking, sketching and gifting.
Character-led design
According to Moleskine, the collection combines its signature approach to creative expression with the timeless appeal of one of Britain's most beloved literary characters. The company describes the project as a fitting tribute to the enduring legacy of Paddington's creator, Michael Bond. The emphasis on curiosity and imagination positions the range as much as a writing and sketching companion as a collectable set.
Launch trail in central London
To celebrate the launch, Moleskine will host a special Paddington trail, titled "The Mystery of the Missing Marmalade", on Sunday 1 November from 1pm to 4pm. Families and fans are invited to explore central London, visiting Moleskine and partner stores along with the Paddington Official Store while collecting stamps along the route. Participants who complete the trail will receive a special limited-edition Paddington cahier.
Availability
The collection is available to shop online and in all UK Moleskine stores. It will also be stocked at selected Waterstones, John Lewis & Ryman stores, Selfridges London and WHSmith stores, widening its reach beyond Moleskine's own retail network.
The launch reflects the continued draw of literary licensing for stationery brands, pairing a familiar character with products intended for writing and collecting. Pricing and individual design details were not included in the announcement.
