Fashion forward


What you wear can take you from here to there, backward, forward, into the center of now, or anywhere you want. The year is young, still new and, if you follow the Lunar Calendar, you have more than a whole new year ahead of you. What are you wearing? Where are you headed? Go far and go fast. Jump!

A fortune teller told me

With a bag of tricks, a fortuneteller can send you on a wild goose chase or straight to a trove of treasures, in which your greatest find might be your own strength, your own style, your own self.

Discover the new Tod’s T-Chain Bag through Tod’s Treasure video. Follow the quirky protagonist who just won’t let go of her object of desire—The T-Chain Bag.

The latest model from the iconic T Timeless collection goes one step further with a chain shoulder strap and becomes a precious treasure stolen from a mysterious fortuneteller. The mischievous magpie proudly shows off her rich treasure in myriad colors and variations, but she does not expect the usual and funny trap she is about to fall into.

The elegant bag comes in a kaleidoscope of colors, from sapphire blue to tangerine orange, from red to animal print. The versatile style can be carried crossbody or worn on the shoulder.

When the going gets tough, the tough get dressed

Welcoming the new year with soft, luxurious textures—layering becomes lighter, allowing bold colors to peek through. Delivered through a vivacious color palette, this Lunar New Year capsule collection is centred around the anticipation of a “bright” new year ahead.  

Nodding to auspicious traditions associated with the festivity, shades of red make an appearance throughout the collection for an emphasis on cheer.

Tonal dressing makes a statement without sacrificing comfort. When paired with oversized accessories such as graphic wool scarves, quilted accessories, and statement knit hybrids, juxtapositions of proportions dress up easy silhouettes to give looks a playful edge.

Behind the lens is renowned contemporary Chinese photographer Nick Yang, artfully capturing the collection with a relaxed freshness.
