Tod’s SS19 collection is one you’ll want to look at again and again. Muted hues created a soft rainbow of colour that ranged from cobalt blue to blush pink – soothing and welcoming on the eye.
This collection was about the Italian holiday – the chic elegance of Tod’s was emphasised in with looks fit for a summer getaway in Capri – the Italian House provided everything you would need in your suitcase in one collection. Loose fitting shorts, ruffled skirts, printed trousers, relaxed shirts cropped trousers, lightweight blazers in prints and stripes. And chic easy-to-wear dresses. Luxe fabrics like soft leather, suede and raffia were worn together complementing each other. There was a utility influence with long-sleeved shirts and chino style trousers paired together.
Each individual look was tonally coherent and complementary of the look before and after it. Different tones of the same hue were used to create each look ensuring it was soft and welcoming to look at.
The only colour clashing came from the accessories – and even this was muted. Brown and black leather cross body bags were worn over casual looks and raffia style beach bags were paired with shorts and dresses. Shoes came in the form of espadrilles that ties at the ankle and flat sandals. Of course there were loafers (it wouldn’t be a Tod’s collection without them), but they had a more relaxed feel and were embellished with tassles and fringing. Neck ties brought a chic holiday feel while mirrored sunglasses were essential.
When it came to the men the same colour rules applied – with brown being the colour of the season. Brown suits, shirts and trousers were worn with preppy style blazers. Casual chinos were belts at the waist and worn with suede loafers, Denim was also a key part of the men’s offering with blazers and jackets in denim fabrics.
