Tod’s has announced the launch of its latest collaboration “Rahul Mishra X Tod’s”, a new Tod’s Factory project, with with renowned Indian designer Rahul Mishra, who has interpreted the iconic Tod’s Gommino, Tod’s Di Bag and a selection of Tod’s T Timeless accessories for men and women.
The “Rahul Mishra X Tod’s” collection is part of Tod’s Factory, a creative laboratory where established and emerging designers are invited to offer a new point of view on the Tod’s DNA and its iconic heritage.
Tod’s Factory allows creatives unique access to Tod’s craftsmen and the savoir-faire in the Marche region of Italy, creating a range of capsule collections and limited-edition pieces within the season.
According to the house, the collaboration pays homage to the encounter of quality and Italian artisanal tradition and the essence of Indian craftsmanship: Tod’s iconic accessories, hand embroidered by skilled Kaarigar artisans, who have perfected this art for generations and interpret timeless luxury with a contemporary language.
“We developed a limited-edition of Tod’s icons, including the Tod’s Gommino and Di Bag, drawing inspiration from nature, my constant muse, crafting classic in-house motifs and the distinctive foliage, synonymous with my designs. Having had the opportunity to work on this project has been a great honour for me. This collaboration is special. To me, this partnership expresses artisanal mastery, Italian elegance as well as our intricate Indian craftsmanship,” says Rahul Mishra.
The International launch of the “Rahul Mishra X Tod’s” collection will take place today, 13th of September as part of London Fashion Week, at Tod’s Bond Street Boutique.
