Exclusive – The high Summer 2017 capsule collection from TOD’S
MR PORTER, the award-winning online destination for men’s style, is pleased to launch an exclusive high Summer 2017 capsule collection with iconic Italian label, TOD’S. The refined collection of footwear and seasonal vacation wear is comprised of 25 pieces and has been designed by TOD’S Menswear Creative Director, Mr Andrea Incontri.
The collection is rooted in the brand’s renowned leather Gommino – TOD’S quintessential driving shoe and vacation essential – and stems into an all-encompassing, summertime capsule of ready-to-wear pieces that encapsulate the MR PORTER and TOD’S man. The collection consists of a relaxed and effortlessly stylish colour palette of bright blues, reds and whites across a range of ready-to-wear, accessories and shoes. Key pieces in the
collection include an updated version of the Gommino in a variety of colours; timeless and luxurious suede bomber jackets in various shades of blue; a beautifully crafted suede leather tote with rubber pebble detailing at the edges; and a range of printed swim shorts with co-ordinating statement camp collar shirts, reminiscent of a 1950’s pool party in Italy.
The exclusive collection which will launch globally on MR PORTER on 13th June 2017 followed by a dedicated story on the capsule in the Italian Issue of The Journal on the 15th June. To mark the launch, MR PORTER and TOD’S will also celebrate the collection with a co-hosted poolside reception at the famous Villa Necchi Campiglio during the Milan men’s week shows.
“Since launching the TOD’S ready-to-wear business in 2015, we have wanted to work on an exclusive collection to celebrate the brands Italian roots and give our customer a collection which exudes the Mediterranean summertime, which Andrea has done so wonderfully. TOD’S is one of the most time-honoured luxury houses, and we’re thrilled to be continuing this great partnership, giving our global customer base something special
which they can’t find anywhere else.”
