Tod's rings in the new year with their newest collection
HERITAGE
We start with the wooden work table where the first designs came from: Diego and Andrea Della Valle’s grandfather took the first steps of Tod’s long history; now, the leather universe created by Tod’s is intensely artisanal.
PASH
A crafted coating that produces a strikingly velvety aged effect. It is a special treatment to items reflected throughout the collection.
GALLERY
Inspired by Mark Rothko’s graphic subtlety, abstract brushwork gives Tod’s icons new movement in hand-treated skins and experimental coatings nuancing black to sand, blending grey and mud, dark brown and other earth colours.
GOMMINO SNEAKER
Tod’s signature motif – the GOMMINO – defines the brushed suede of the sneakers in all the versions, even the new patent ones and the two-tone texture-effect leather/fabric models.
ENVELOPE BAG
Travel loves a soft yet functional envelope in hand, especially if it’s the tumbled leather envelope bag with a gommino-finish bottom. It opens and closes with or without a zipper and is hand carried or worn on the shoulder.
RTW
The pash coating are features in the field jacket, bomber and biker where leather garments with a cosmopolitan and contemporary cut are airy as a fabric. A wardrobe of surprising lightness that folds like tissue paper but never creases.
In the Philippines, Tod’s is located at Greenbelt 4 and Rustan’s Shangri-La, Shangri-La Plaza. Follow @ssilifeph on Instagram for more information.
