ICYMI, Living Legend Dolly Parton?? is coming out with a new book titled Behind the Seams: My Life in Rhinestonesa project that will be devoted to her iconic fashion repertoire over the past seven decades. The 336-page book is slated to debut on October 17 (so mark your calendars, people!) and is the second in a planned trilogy that began with her 2020 bestseller, Songteller: My Life in Lyrics. As Dolly stans gear up for the release, she’s been biding her time in a very relatable way: by joining Pinterest (check out her boards!) and sharing her book’s back-cover image for the first time with Cosmo and the world.

Dolly has joined the social media platform to “give Pinners an insider’s look into her story, style and inspiration, from past to present,” according to a press release shared by the popular social media app.

“For many creatives, Pinterest serves as the first stop in their creative process. For icons like Dolly, Pinterest is a time capsule of her style and aesthetic evolution and brings ‘Dollycore’ inspiration to life for Pinners. Her newly launched Pinterest profile takes Pinners through a color-themed experience where each color board is inspired by a song from the superstar’s expansive musical catalog and features a matching colored vinyl. A comprehensive showcase of Dolly’s currently available vinyl variants are Pinned to her ‘Vinyls of Many Colors’ board.”

And Dolly has been pinning up a storm of color boards inspired by her music catalog, which is probably enough to keep fans satisfied while they wait for the book release later this year.

Meanwhile, Dolly’s forthcoming book will spotlight the country musician’s “most iconic looks from the 1960s to now. The sky-high heels, famous wigs, bold makeup, eye catching stage clothes—she shares them all. Along the way, Dolly discusses memorable outfits from her past, from the clothes her mother would sew out of feed sacks (including her ‘Coat of Many Colors’) and the bold dresses and hairdos that shook up Nashville, to the bunny suit on the cover of Playboy, evening wear at Studio 54, costumes from her most famous film and TV roles, and the daring styles that continue to entertain and inspire today.”

“I am happy, proud, and excited to present my brand-new book ‘Behind The Seams’ to all of you!” the legendary celeb partially captioned a March 22 Instagram post in which she first announced the drop. “It is my hope that you will enjoy a look at my life in costume and hair, and get to know some of the wonderful people that have helped shape my life and look.”

In the event that Dolly’s obvious stamp of approval and the book’s *chef’s kiss* content immediately made you want to buy it, you’ll be happy to hear that Behind the Seams: My Life in Rhinestones is officially available for pre-order.

TL;DR: Dolly’s influence knows no bounds, whether on the page or on Pinterest.
