Tod’s dazzling couture
F A N C Y F E E T
Tod’s dazzling couture loafers are hot to trotA year ago, the Italian luxury-leather-goods company Tod’s introduced a couture take on its iconic D-Bag collection. The bespoke Tod’s bags were serious business, seducing celebrity fans like Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, Nicole Kidman, and Charlize Theron, to name a few. This season the Tod’s bags are back, and with them a fleet of loafers made from the same fine
materials. The theme of this year’s collection? Tod’s Rock Princess. Hand-embroidered with crystals in a choice of six shapes, the calfskin shoes can also be customized by color. (The fluorescent-enhanced version, shown here, is a highlight.) These stone-studded Tod’s slippers, made in Italy by expert artisans, are the pride of the company—and soon to be the star of your closet!
