For the Spring/Summer 2012, Tod’s re-incarnated its iconic D Bag not only in color palettes that are visually sublime but also in super luxurious snakeskin that begs to be adopted and loved. The collection is highly inspired by Tod’s core customers. Tod’s women lead busy lives and rely on accessories and clothing that are elegant and versatile at the same time. Staying true to the house’s philosophy, Derek Lam’s creations for Tod’s focus on quality, timelessness, functionality and versatility without compromising elegance and luxury in any way.

Tod’s Custom Made Services

A typical ‘Custom made’ corner in a Tod’s boutique

It has been made available in Singapore since March this year but I did not really get to cover this until I visited the small corner in Tod’s Paragon store today. Tod’s has upped the ante by offering the custom made service for its iconic products in luxurious skins such as python and croc in various color choices. Among few, the iconic Gommini shoes and D-Bag are the clear top choices.

I am loving the medium D-Bag in python, which costs SGD4,950 and 5 months of waiting but I really think it is worth every single cent and second of it, I almost placed one for myself in the military green shade until I realized I really needed to wait after the amount of shopping I had done this month. The croc version of the D-bag will set you back by more than SGD40,000 so that is a story for another day. If you are in the look for something special, make that urgent trip to the store now and be pampered with the choices of style, material and color options that would set you apart from the other off-the-shelf shoppers. I got my hands on a few interesting things today, which I will share later next week but this tops all of them hands down!

Tod’s D Bag Bauletto

Posted on by

The Tod’s Press Kit arrived at my home today and as a huge fan of the D Bag, naturally I went looking for the newest incarnation of the bag and for the love of Italian labels…… I think I have to have one of the D Bag Bauletto myself. The D Bag is utilitarian and very discreetly luxurious given the impeccable workmanship and buttery soft leather and the Bauletto is just one more notch bigger, not just in term of size but also versatility. For the Spring / Summer 2010, the colors are Vacchetta, lilac, pumpkin, chocolate and blue. This one in lilac is surely rare and very feminine, giving a contrast to the slightly “androgynous” shape of the Bauletto bag. Watch out for this when it hit the stores near you in January 2010.

Askme – Tod’s D Bag

Hi Purseholic

Seems like Tod’s D bag is getting a lot of attention and good reviews lately. Is it worth buying?

Cecelia, London

Hi Cece

The answer is extremely simple – YES!!! Derek Lam designed this bag with the intention of making it Tod’s classic in mind and the bag does have all the attributes to be one. He even went as far to dub this bag as the Hermes Kelly of Tod’s and I think he is not exagerrating a bit. In the US, the bag retails for USD1,445. I think it should be around the same price or even cheaper in London or Paris. Please get one in the color you love. You will love this bag forever and this price is really really reasonable for a full leather, made in Italy, classic bag. =)
