fuchsia are the color cards while french terry, fuchsia are the color cards while french terry, in continuo divenire, search for beauty and Italian style that can be found in the monuments and squares that are transformed and amalgamated into a virtual universe. The heritage of Italian culture is reflected in the aesthetic research of the collection, which investigates Italian culture, underlining a tradition that has always found its roots in the mission of Tod’s.
Walter Chiapponi, Creative Director of Tod's, has reworked the icons of Italian beauty that become modern and versatile objects, daily in use but precious and unique in quality. Like the famous The Bag in natural leather, with whom Lady Diana fell in love, which is now deconstructed and transformed into a multifunctional bag to be carried folded by hand, expertly constructed in the softest and most sensual leathers.
Like it Stivaletto W.G., laced with the rubber sole that reinvents itself for the season winter in new proportions and in suede with warm and natural colors, the masculine-inspired shoes have a high, voluminous sole and evoke military amphibians and winter sports.
The most iconic garments of traditional sportswear, the trench coat and the bomber jacket, they change their volumes and mix different and surprising materials: quilted nubuck and padded leather, wool shearling effect sweater. The applications of rubber armor details work as a memory of the iconic Gommino. Male and female come together in a unisex wardrobe only in inspiration, because he is always attentive to the lines of the body and the dialogue between genders. Knitwear is a great protagonist, voluminous and heavy to the eye but soft and sensual to the touch, combined with fabric and leather for a bohemian effect. The purity of the lines from uniform and the luxury of Italian tailoring is combined with the spirit of streetwear contemporary, where the skirt becomes Bermuda shorts and the pants have an attitude when I was a boy.
The rigor and urban elegance of the men's jackets and coats decline to the country freedom of capes and padded jackets. The bags T Timeless they have precise and geometric structures but they change and change shape under pressure of the hand. Thanks to crochet work and the intersections of knit and leathers become a contemporary reworking of craftsmanship.
In blue and black or in the colors of caramel and chocolate, these are the uniforms of contemporaneity, the symbols of the Italian lifestyle where the wisdom of heritage coexists with the pleasure of discovery and the surprise of innovation. The elaborations and the exaltation of the Italian beauty can be found in the works of the digital artist Andrea Maria Colombo, that frame the show.
