In the shots taken by Baron & Baron, the on-screen couple poses at a gorgeous oceanside location in Malibu. The whole campaign carries a romantic Italian vibe and looks like it was taken somewhere along the Amalfi coast. Tod’s stayed faithful to their heritage and the signature effortless elegance. Both Kendall and Roberto are wearing pieces from the brand’s Spring 2018 collection from head to toes. There are also two other characters that bring all the fun in the ad material.

Jenner plays with an adorable corgi puppy and a cute French bulldog. The two adorable dogs give a playful touch to the summer-inspired video and ad pictures. Both the supermodel and ballet dancer sport laid-back looks in the promotional material. In one of the shots, Jenner flaunts a pair of white cropped pants, blue shirt, beige bag, and loafers, while holding the cute corgi. In the other ones, she shows off a more vibrant look, thanks to the printed colorful top and chic jeans. Tod’s recognizable luxury loafers will be once again trending for the upcoming season.

Titled “Italian Inspiration” the advertisement celebrates Tod’s and their history in the best possible way. The power duo is taking each other’s pictures on the beach, they are having pasta for dinner and playing cards by the pool. Bolle and Jenner hosted a cocktail party during men’s Fashion Week in Milan to celebrate the official launch of the campaign. Tod’s also debuted their new Fall/Winter 2019 Menswear Collection at the Villa Necchi.

Leather-goods house Tod’s has returned to the Milan Fashion Week’s runway shows with the sophisticated Tod’s fall/winter 2017-18 ready-to-wear collection, which took an unexpected artistic and literary turn as well.

For this runway show and collection, designed by the house’s in-studio team, chairman and CEO Diego Della Valle had something imposing in mind, which figuratively traced the lines for the fashion house’s upcoming 12 months in the industry. First and foremost, the Tod’s fall/winter 2017-18 rtw runway show marked one of the brand’s biggest milestones, i.e. the release of “Timeless Icons”, a glamorous tome that celebrates Tod’s and the fashion industry’s muses and icons. Secondly, it confirmed Tod’s willingness to “continue to link the brand with art,” as Diego Della Valle himself explained backstage.

The Tod’s fall 2017 runway show featured a live installation entitled “Wrapping”, created by renowned artist Thomas De Falco, which consisted of pieces of fabric and ropes tied together and intertwining a group of models, among which there was top model queen Naomi Campbell.

The installation set the right mood for the collection, too, as in parallel it celebrated Tod’s notoriously high-end tailored leather goods, refined clothing pieces and lifetime accessories. This collection could be regarded as an extremely versatile compendium of separates to wear on a daily basis, all linked through the common fil rouge of urban-chic allures. With outerwear being the collection’s focal point, this Tod’s line-up was incredibly winter-ready, especially with deconstructed biker jackets, anoraks and long coats dominating the scene.

The collection’s color palette was particularly winter-approved too, while at the same time remaining true to Tod’s signature browns, beiges and whites. This time around, Tod’s design studio team also opted for a grand finale of total black looks, which were definitely more glam-rock in style, rather than sophisticatedly urban-chic.

As for this Tod’s fall/winter 2017-18 rtw collection’s must-haves, the skirts and the pencil trousers were definitely the most intriguing items, with the former featuring mostly midi lengths, and the latter being all about Eighties-inspired ultra-skinny figures and sleek leather materials.

Fashions and artistic installations aside, this Tod’s collection was, as it always happens with the fashion house, extremely appealing in terms of footwear, too. Tod’s leisure-approved lifestyle was this time translated to a dream and cozy array of loafers covered with fur, preppy moccasins, urban creepers and, of course, boots, the soles of which were inspired by old work shoes. Lace-up hikers were utilized as well, and ultimately overwhelmed the overall Tod’s fall 2017 rtw collection with their most wanderlust-infused attitude.

The Tod’s spring/summer 2017 fashion show was a feature in beautiful leatherwork and interesting ready-to-wear outfit options. Everything was beautifully done and though the clothes were fantastic, trimmed in python, suede, and leather in varying shades and finishes, the true stars still shone bright.

Tod’s has been through a bit of refreshment, including the departure of Alessandra Facchinetti, their former creative director. Nevertheless, the show was great, with the Wave bags and Double T bags shown in several different colors and combinations in the models hands.

The idea appeared to be to show how well Tod’s spring and summer 2017 collection of accessories would work with commonly worn silhouettes and ensembles. The small Double T bags and the micro Wave bag, as well as other iterations of the double T and Wave are also seen in the collection with various outfits.

Presentations of the Gommino Driving shoes, sandals, heels and loafers were shown in videos that can be seen on Instagram. There were also videos of gloved hands caressing the Double T bags. The variety of colors, prints and finishes is fascinating and well received. The heels shown in the presentation are block heeled and feature an ankle strap in several different colors.

Furthermore, the long standing and well-earned reputation Tod’s has for fine Italian leather goods is beautifully apparent. The sandals are well crafted and look beautiful against the other fringe leather shift dress. The leather loafers are still classically beautiful and the slip-on and lace-up sneakers and moccasins are beautifully done in an array of colors that is truly amazing.

Making a choice is not easy as so very many of the shoes appear comfortable and beautifully, richly colored. So many of the looks are already beautiful, but cohesively the entire collection just works in a way that many other collections do not. Very rarely are most of the shoes entirely comfortable in appearance and stunningly beautiful as well, but this is the case for the shoes in the Tod’s spring 2017 collection.

Of course, the show wasn’t entirely dedicated to iconic Tod’s accessories, but we also saw an array of easy-to-wear, sleek looks, featuring biker jackets, pea coats perfect for the transitional seasons, shift dresses and leather or suede T-shirts that are too luxe to go by unnoticed. Python skin finishes, Italian leather and suede were at the core of this collection, which is captivating without question. The options are varied and with something for everyone there will be plenty of sales.

Perhaps the most striking moment on the Tod’s Milan Fashion Week show for the fall and winter seasons of 2016 was when the shocking amethyst purple looks were shown off on stage, really adding a bright splash of color to the collection. We would not say these ready-to-wear pieces are entirely devoid of colors of course, especially since we do have a very royal blue pants and coat combination, shearling lapels and lining and all, along with lots of red accents, blues and greens and stripes all over. But it is the fact that we suddenly see some extremely bold hues appear among the rest that are mostly blending into the background, effectively creating a certain intrigue around the outfits in the jewel tones.

The truly purple pieces include similar matching pants and coats to the blue, this time in a deeper color, with white tufts of fur along the lapels and clearly made of dyed suede. The pants are also with a stripe down the side seam and cropped at the ankles to match with the latest trends. Then comes that shiny jacket in the same hue, with red fur lapels and a wraparound cut, complete with a tie belt, followed by a combination of purple pleated midi skirts and suede flats with golden buckles, and plaid coats with patching pants and shirt that come with a purple fur lapel and furry purple handbag. Yes, we certainly love the purple.

There was something very modern but Aboriginal clan-like about the Tod’s fall 2016 RTW collection as a whole. We saw abstract landscapes on white sweaters bearing black, red and white colors, fringed leather skirts that were reminiscent of bows, arrows and quivers, moccasins on the feet along with knit boots complete with Aboriginal detailing, foxtails hanging from coat belts, chains with fringe around the neck and so much more.

There was a whole lot of leather used throughout, with a whole lot of stitching to match. The main colors that seemed to appear included black, red and white, while quite a few looks also featured the plaid patterns. A few trends noticed include midi hems, cropped pants at the ankles, accented waists, furry additions, tasseled handbags and shoes, the appearance of flats, and chained pieces.

In terms of hair and makeup, bangs seem to be in style, whether bold and short or long and wispy, with straightened hair hanging over the shoulder and down the back. There was a focus on the eyeshadows with very little otherwise added to the visage, instead bringing the focus to the clothing itself. Big afro hair though seems to be in these days, meaning that 2016 will be full of perms again. As for hot to part the hair, it appears that center, off-center, with bangs or without, all of it goes, as long as you let your locks loose. It only looks better when you add the single earring trend to this, with a colorful tassel hanging from the lobe on one side.

Alessandra Facchinetti, Tod’s creative director, has just showcased the Tod’s spring/summer 2016 RTW collection taking the runway show to a whole new level. Choosing models with strongly defined identities, she went for creating a band where each member has her own style and at the same time they all complete each other. “Beyond the rules” was the motto of the show and you can definitely see why browsing through the personality-stating looks unveiled.

Asymmetrical shapes, queer designs, eerie accessories and a well-defined rock-chic vibe took center stage at the show. Chelsey Tyler, Quentin Jones, Elizabeth Jagger, Langley Fox and some other faces from Sonia Sieff-captured portrait that hung in the entry of the runway were all present at the show ensuring that the members of the Tod’s spring band followed no rules and created their own instead. In fact, that is the main reason for them to be highly followed. As far as there are so many unique design solutions here, it is hard to tell a time-influence on the collection. You can find the high-waist classic striped pants with leather belts from the ‘60s, eccentric midi skirts with laser-cut details in the form of circles reminiscent of the ‘70s and ‘80s, and classy pantsuits with the ‘90s inspired match of accessories.

The Tod’s spring 2016 line-up is flooded with quirky patterns that look amazing on classic designs: just take the white V-neck overall with the curious retro-inspired vinyl print and you get a totally fine outfit perfect both for everyday wear and an evening out with friends. The thin striped scarf on the neck adds a touch of edge to the entire don’t-care look, while making it appear overly elegant and feminine. It’s amazing to see how simple feminine pieces can be transferred into androgynous combos with the help of the right choice of makeup, hair and shoes: the model donning the striped off-the shoulder emerald green sweater with the midi-skirt featuring a fringed hemline and metal studs channels her tomboy side through the use of classic black lacquer loafers, while the leaf choker adds a subtle feminine edge to the outfit.

Alessandra went far with the play with fabrics, designing burgundy capris from velour, shirt-like overalls, paper-cotton cardigans and even blazers from metallic leather. The latter seems to have been taken from a cosmic show like Star Wars giving you the inspiration to wear the clothes of your favorite sci-fi movie character on a daily basis. A leather belt is one of the noteworthy accessories used throughout the line-up, appearing on the deep V-neck overalls, skirts and wide-leg shorts: of course, we love them especially when folded in an unusual way.

The Tod’s spring 2016 show is literally rife with great ideas of edgy hairstyles ranging from messy waves on fringed bobs to wet-effect pixies inspired by the ‘90s. You can play with your makeup either putting nothing on your face or using a whole bunch of products on the eyes and you will still look cool with one earring missing and half of your blazer carelessly hanging on your shoulder over the soft colored chiffon overall. And we can’t but mention the cross-body bags in all the rainbow colors that look amazing with all the funny prints and drawings. The whole idea here is to never be afraid to play with fashion and wear your favorite things confidently with pieces that might seem crazy at first sight.

Apart from any crazy drastic changes, bold choices and daring steps to take we all love to have these timeless modern pieces in our wardrobe that we could wear any day without overthinking the outfit. The one collection to meet our requirements has been Tod’s fall 2015 fashion line, which we liked so much when showcased back in February. This Italian brand knows too well how to create numbers for those who already know their stable place in life or at least want to appear that way, and their campaigns also correspond to this motto. This time for their Tod’s fall 2015 campaign, the brand has chosen a familiar face from Valentino and Yves Saint Laurent’s campaigns, Grace Hartzel – an American beauty with ocean-blue eyes and signature brunette hair with straight bangs.

Sticking to simplicity and an easy background, the shots are taken in front of mahogany, beige furniture to emphasize the natural colors and unique fashionable designs as well as possible. We love these basic must-have clothes like the white shirt with lovely laser-cut embellishment on the edges and the sleeves. That is such a good match with the black leather bag and dark blue straight classic pants. Of course, accessories could not but accentuate the stylish office look being in the form of a big gold ring with a huge square stone on it, and a chunky golden bracelet. Another fascinating outfit makes up the dark-wash denim pants and the long-sleeve chambray shirt tucked into it that has such nice ornamentations on it with black tear-shape stones. For this look the creamy beige bag, gold and white ring and bracelet come to be amazing complementing details. And the third look displayed in the Tod’s fall ad campaign consists of a brown leather jacket with white and pink geometric patterns on the sleeves, a navy blue sweater, and classic straight pants styled with a creamy bag, a golden ring and a long necklace with an unusually attractive pendant. The style of the shots wholly represents that lovely warm spirit of fall in the clothing, wavy hair and brown smokey eye makeup with nude rosy lips. The ad pictures put the focus on the Cape bag and the new Wave Bag that are both stylish and spacious enough to carry your necessary belongings.

The official website of Tod’s tells us that the campaign carries over the story of Tod’s Woman from last season when it all began. An intense and feminine woman with a refined style derived from a marked preference for elegance and quality is the brand’s character for the season. This new collection is meant for an inspirational yet authentic lifestyle with every product enhancing the exquisite Italian taste and charm, which definitely have always made the basic values for the Tod’s brand. Well, this campaign really proves right for that aim: it does represent that chic style that looks splendid on a daily basis for going to work or creating modern and feminine looks any other day.

The Tod’s fall/winter 2015-2016 collection had us falling in love with fashion all over again, with its sophisticated lines and chic designs. Alessandra Fachinetti, the creative director of the Italian luxury fashion brand Tod’s, has certainly outdone herself, weaving in the luxury shoes and the leather goods into a 29-outfit long showcasing of some of the loveliest pieces to be made available on the market. There are no extra embellishments, no glitters per se, other than the final piece with its metallic skirt and matching belt cinching the waist of the form fitting nude sweater with the high neck. Between the colors and the prints, the styles and the tailoring, we had little to say that could be construed as negative. It is simply a lovely ready to wear collection that each and every one of us could actually don on a daily basis.

A few things that really caught our attention included the belted stole, that pretty little change in wearing the piece that makes it all the more chic, plus leaves the hands free to get other stuff done. It has been a common piece on the street fashion looks for a little while now and we will certainly be noticing more of it come the colder days at the end of this year. Mind you, we are still waiting for spring to arrive in most places so we are in no hurry to see this appear everywhere just yet. The diamond motif is also quite attractive, a definite delight after being faced with striped for so long. We love geometric shapes by design… they are pleasing to the eye and ease the mind with their orderly fashion for the most part. Having the diamonds is even more satisfying, like seeing the perfect cube except it’s turned to the side. Here, we had the diamond motifs in the embroidered trouser suits, the studded belts and the intarsia knits.

Other details to catch our attention were those shiny shoes, highly buffed and squeaky clean. It’s almost a shame to walk out in them and get them dirty. You’d be cursing every mud splash and grass stain that makes its way on there. Plus, who doesn’t want to feel like they are heading back to school, possibly the best and the worst time of your life, depending on your perspective. Though we doubt we were ever allowed to wear such stylish burgundy loafers to class, particularly in private school. The matching bag and pants also really appeal to us, as we love matching pieces by design even though the matching of the shoe and the bag is believed to be old fashioned these days; while we still opt to do that from time to time, Tod’s suggests a better alternative: matching up the purple suede pair of skinny pants with a tote in the same fabric and color might actually do the trick, appearing in line with all the rest of the pieces of the outfit without throwing us back into the ‘80s, ‘90s and perhaps early 2000s. We have fallen for the Tod’s fall/winter 2015-2016 collection and cannot wait to fill up our drawers with a few of these captivating numbers.

The third day of Milan Fashion Week spring 2015 brought the beautifully sporty and modern Tod’s spring/summer 2015 collection, coming with the most incredible and classy style interpretations ever! What we actually discover here is the range of simplistic yet absolutely memorable pieces, coming with a variety of shades and colors that will secure your effective fashion alternatives for going for the most diverse styles and looks without any difficulty. The strict and laconic style really manages to overwhelm the majority of the looks here thus creating a very specific and cool range of options and thus also confirming the emergence of a new fashion trend for the season.

The Tod’s spring/summer 2015 collection starts with the range of strict combinations of suits and pants, finished with the classy and a bit modernized handbags, and being adorned with some tiny design details and elements. The combination of black and white shades can also be noted in the list of the top looks thus suggesting some more interesting variations of the classic outfits, here coming with the deign patterns and prints on pure white background.
Leather pieces come right after, quickly followed with the list of yellow and purple tones, which again have really interesting and great design patterns and several design inclinations. Creamy tones designed with some curious O-ringed cuts form the following masterpieces among other looks. The same can be said about the monochrome white pieces, the main catchy point of which is probably the minimalistic approach and the bold design additions, which we could expect as a counterbalance to the strict and simplistic style inclination of the collection as such.
So further we also see some asymmetrical differences in between the classiest looks and the basic simple forms. The color palette also gets quite diversified and perfected, involving shades like muted red in combination with black tones, used for the company of the bold and non-standardized solutions.

Shat you need to remember for the Tod’s spring/summer 2015 collection is not what you should sort out for the possible combinations, but the overall range of fashion trends and newest pieces, which are in fact quite significant for this line. If you manage to create the combinations nicely you may also include any of the details and the components of the looks in order to secure the modern feel and the creativity of your spring outfits to the full.

Comfy, classic, and chic came together once more, and this time it’s the wonderful Tod’s fall/winter 2014-2015 collection they were meant to create. Well, the results of this reunion have always been pleasing and this try is not an exception, either. So it’s definitely charming, definitely modern, and of course innovative, and this is the very first thing that catches our attention from the very beginning. Also, we should talk about the proportions of extravagance used for the majority of the garments. The nice diversity of them is the following catchy aspect.

In this way, the Tod’s fall/winter 2014-2015 collection started with a very impressive and memorable array of outerwear garments, which came with shimmery fabrics and oversized looks, some crossed stripy patterns, and minimalistically designed yet extremely feminine options. The color palette of these garments was sticking to the principle of being cool and stylishly chic, too, thus coming mainly with shades of black and white, monochrome and in combos.
The extravaganza of the designs concerns not only the outerwear, however, but the rest of the looks, too, also having been picked for the cool hats, the tops with cuffed and relaxed sleeves, and the resourcefully picked pants with relaxed wide-leg deigns again. The super cool diversity of the shades comes right after, getting diversified into brownish, navy blue, and chocolate-like options. The pieces they come used with are still interesting and catchy, combining their individual features with those trendy and astounding shapes.

The range of the other shades like cream and pale pink are also present in the Tod’s fall/winter 2014-2015 collection, followed with the next array of shapes this time, coming as diamond prints and other micro-dotted patterns. The spectacular greyish pieces are also here, coming with patterns of grey and black, and also such prints as the abstract for the quite loose poncho-resembling pieces.
So it was really very breathtaking to follow these amazing development of the designs and the shapes, which seemed to be continuing each other, coming in a very spectacular coherence in terms of their design patterns and overall shapes forming the main range of the Tod’s fall/winter 2014-2015 collection looks. They created a line, which is definitely worth looking through for the best and most flawless looks!

What do you expect from a talented fashion designer, who has worked for Gucci, Valentino and Miu Miu? Well, the result is obviously stunning, stylish and hot. Alessandra Facchinetti’s Tod’s sping/summer 2014 collection unveiled at Milan Fashion Week just today is the earnest outcome of the collaboration of some diligent and creative professionals. It seems, Victoria’s Secret Angel Karolina Kurkova is the perfect person to make the collection look good. As the fashioner Alessandra Facchinetti said Karolina always “flirts with tradition but without any rules.” And she definitely does wearing such heart-beating sassy outfits!

The essential colors of the Tod’s sping/summer 2014 collection are modern, but also create a nostalgic atmosphere of the old times, when Europe was on its highest pick of blossom. The combination of futuristic looks with some mythological antique dresses makes the collection even more mature and cool. The hot burgundy, crisp white, pure blue and the caramel tones are super-trendy and feminine. Leather is the main material of the collection, which manages to appear way too artistic and aristocratic to be ignored.
The very first look of the Tod’s sping/summer 2014 runway show was a burgundy leather dress with a white chic bag, which seems to be a perfect look for the next main female character in the “Men in Black” movie. It is classy and extravagant though a bit bizarre to wear it casually. Another innovation is the maroon leather dress with white semi-circles and a black semi-belt. It is a perfect look for magicians or wizards.

The Tod’s sping/summer 2014 collection also has some teacher-ready looks, such as the white classy skirt matched with a white loose elegant shirt, or the creamy loose shirt and costume worn over a plain white tank top.
Our favorite look of the show is probably the Aphrodite dress in creamy leather, which is strikingly stunning. Wholly, the Tod’s sping/summer 2014 collection is a source of inspiration for chic casual wear looks with an elegant touch!
