The Tod’s • X collection, the second collaboration since Zhan’s engagement with the brand in 2021, balances modern minimalism with an understated luxury. The Di Bag Swing emerges as a scene-stealer, with a soft leather finish and structural precision.
Meanwhile, the phone holder, distinguished by the sleek T Barretta detail, offers a practical statement in a world where digital essentials are paramount.
Color and texture define the collaboration. The pieces are awash in neutral tones, from grey to brown. With beige and green accents, the T Vintage sneakers embody the casual elegance of 1970s Italian sportswear, down to the contrast stitching.
The wool scarf, enveloped in a gentle heathered hue, complements the double-collar shirt, which carries a crisp silhouette perfect for a transitional wardrobe.
Through Xiao Zhan’s creative interpretation, the Tod’s • X capsule captures the distilled essence of Italian lifestyle. The collaboration marks a modern-day cultural exchange, bridging Italian artisanship with Zhan’s nuanced, contemporary vision.
