Fashion dispatch: Jetsetting gents gets a more flexible wardrobe from Tod’s at Milan Men’s Fashion Week S/S ’20 collection

At its Milan Men’s Fashion Week presentation at Villa Necchi, Tod’s drew a fuller picture of the jetsetter lifestyle, complete with accessories, for the spring/summer 2020 season.

The star of the collection is the Ride Jacket, a Nappa leather motorcycle jacket that is ultra-light and as comfortable as second skin, featuring slanted pockets and double stripes in ton sur ton effect. As for the rest of the selection, graphic fabrics such as digital-camouflage prints and modernized checkered prints done in neutral palettes can be seen sporadically in specific garments. Preppy blazers are lined with contrasting fabrication while utilitarian windbreakers come in high performance textiles for technical luxury.

When it came to shoes, an ergonomic shape and yachting-inspired details mark the highly flexible Tod’s Competition, the label’s latest footwear design, which comes in bold colors. The iconic Tod’s Gommino also made an appearance, slightly re-imagined with contrast piping and an archival metal T buckle.

Covetable bags⁠—pillow-effect shoppers, leather backpacks⁠—in various textures were made more spacious for weekend getaways, and duffel bags and messenger bags are accentuated with vibrant colors and blocked striping detail.
