Elegant & sophisticated style London - Arabstoday Tod’s Autumn-Winter 2012/13 Women’s collection has feminine and modern shapes, refined details and innovative lines, where the craftsmanship identity of the brand is expressed in its highest quality. The shoes The Monk strap ankle boot is for a more casual look or the classic décolleté, where the extremely light plateau is joined to a visible leather sole, and the heel, padded in leather, gives the shoe an original and very feminine aesthetic. Luxury and preciousness lie in the complexity of the construction, in the quality of materials and in their special use. The same knowledge on craftsmanship is underlined in the special Tod’s expertise on wedges: ankle boots and boots become elegant and light, a new shape of casual and refined style. The iconic Winter Gommino has been reinterpreted throughout a new rubber plateau sole, as well as the Tod’s renowned Gommino, which becomes the season’s must-have in leopard-print pony skin. The range of products is completed by a to-the-knee high heel boot in brushed calfskin and soft suede, simple yet elegant and with a chunky 10cm heel, a playful mix of classic and modern coloured suede slippers and flat loafers with tassels in classic brush or metallic calf skins. The bags For the new season, the Tod’s bag collection widens with new shapes, where the high quality is expressed in new models, with precious materials and in different colors. The luxury of quality is an aesthetic and functional pleasure. The Miky Bag, an iconic model of the brand, develops an innovative design. The rounded construction, example of the high quality of the brand, has a leading role in this bag, along with the “selleria” touch, which is highlighted by the contrasting seaming. The leather is very soft and the patent calf skin enhances the skill of Tod’s artisans. In a larger version, the handle and the shoulder belt makes the Miky Bag extremely versatile: a bag where the precision, the modernity and the quality are described by every detail. The iconic D Bag Luxury, an evolution of the classic D Bag in a super-luxurious hide, features a full leather lining. Created with the highest levels of craftsmanship and technical expertise and in the most beautiful leathers, the D Bag is soft, with a hand-cut finish and a contemporary silhouette ranging in precious tie-and-dye crocodile and calf skin with bright sheep skin details, or more rectangular in coloured soft calfskin and sheep skin. The material is exquisitely soft, in natural calfskin, perfect for the average Tod’s woman, who enjoys family, travel and work and who needs functionality and elegance at the same time. The collection is completed by a range of new tiny shoulder bags and two tone oversized clutches with a new metallic clip closure. Materials: From the classic and distinctive Tod’s vacchetta leather to the most precious crocodile, sheep skin and astrakhan. Colors: Flashes of mandarin, purple, petrol blue, dark olive green, cherry red, mustard and metallic gold, together with the natural hues of browns and beiges, black and white.
