Turkish actress Hande Ercel drew attention at a Valentino fashion show not only for her outfit, but also for carrying books by Nobel Prize-winning Turkish author Orhan Pamuk as she posed for photographers.
Ercel attended the Valentino show alongside figures from the fashion world, appearing before cameras in her chosen look while holding several books by Pamuk.
The books stood out as one of the more distinctive details from her appearance, with Ercel incorporating them into a series of photographs taken around the event.
Rather than leaving the books aside during the photo session, Ercel continued to hold them while posing for photographers, bringing Pamuk's works into the visual focus of her Valentino appearance.
Pamuk is identified in the coverage as a Nobel Prize-winning author, while Ercel is a Turkish actress who frequently appears at international fashion events.
Her latest appearance brought the two names together in an unusual setting, as images from the Valentino show highlighted the books alongside Ercel's fashion choice.
Ercel was photographed with the Orhan Pamuk books both around the show and while posing for cameras, making them one of the most noticeable elements in images from the event.
While her Valentino look initially drew attention, the books she carried also emerged as a prominent detail from the fashion gathering.
