The Tod’s Factory project is a creative space where established and emerging designers like Rahul Mishra bring new perspectives to Tod’s distinctive style and heritage
In the Rahul Mishra x Tod’s collection, Italian savoir-faire converges with traditional Indian craftsmanship as the designer reimagines the iconic Tod’s Gommino, Tod’s Di Bag and a selection of Tod’s T Timeless accessories for men and women.
“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 Mishra. “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.”
Tod’s iconic Gommino loafers and mules are reimagined with vibrant floral embroideries, meticulously woven with silk threads on metallic nappa leather, and soft black or golden velvet. These designs are adorned with the majestic Tree of Life, a symbol intrinsic to Rahul Mishra’s creative vision. Meanwhile, the iconic Di Bag and T Timeless shoulder bag are transformed into exquisite Couture accessories, showcasing intricate floral patterns crafted from gold sari fabric, and further enriched with crystals, beads, and sequins.
