Introducing Tod’s exclusive capsule collection for MR PORTER.

Staying sharply dressed when it’s warm is all about keeping things relaxed. Thankfully, there are certain brands and collections that provide a measure of reliability in this vein.

The Italian designer Tod’s is one such go-to. We mention it in particular because, after the success of a collaboration with MR PORTER last year, we have teamed up with Tod’s for a second time to create a capsule collection with exclusive colours and fabrics that exemplifies the best of summer dressing. We’ve highlighted a few pieces below, but you can shop the entire collection here.

The striped silk-twill shirts are a standout. Breezy but long-wearing, their classic shape will see you through this summer plus a good few more, and will look great layered over a white T-shirt or worn alone. Elsewhere you’ll find pleated shorts, grandad-collar linen shirts and basketweave polo shirts, which are summertime staples that would slot rather perfectly into an Italian countryside holiday (if Call Me By Your Name is to have a sequel, they’ll know where to come for the wardrobe). Tropical prints, pillar-box reds, creams and summer blues colour the capsule. It’s a bright, sunny collection that all goes rather well together, and if you are keen to build a summer capsule of your own, consider this your headstart.
