Tod’s, the renowned Italian luxury label, has recently announced the appointment of Matteo Tamburini as its new Creative Director. In this role, Tamburini will have the responsibility of overseeing the women’s and men’s collections for the brand. Fashion enthusiasts can look forward to his first collection, the Tod’s AW24/25, which will be showcased during Milan Fashion Week in February.
Diego Della Valle, the President and CEO of Tod’s Group, spoke highly of Tamburini’s talent and expressed his belief that Tamburini’s modern vision of high quality and Italian lifestyle will bring added value to the brand. Della Valle emphasized the importance of Tamburini’s role in developing a creative team of skilled individuals who possess a deep understanding of the luxury industry.
Upon his appointment, Tamburini expressed his personal connection to the brand, stating that he identifies himself with Tod’s values and their continuous pursuit of high quality and style. He is excited to contribute his expertise to further enhancing the brand’s success.
Tamburini brings with him a wealth of experience in the European luxury sector. Having previously worked at prestigious fashion houses such as Rochas, Schiaparelli, Emilio Pucci, and Bottega Veneta, he has been responsible for designing ready-to-wear collections since 2017. His extensive background in luxury fashion solidifies his position as a strong creative force for Tod’s.
The appointment of Tamburini comes after the departure of the previous Creative Director, Walter Chiapponi, who left Tod’s earlier this summer to join Blumarine. Since Tamburini’s appointment, Tod’s Group has reported a 14.3% increase in sales for the first nine months of the year. Strong sales in Europe have offset the slowdown in China during the third quarter. The company attributes its double-digit sales growth to the strong demand from domestic shoppers as well as tourists.
With the arrival of Matteo Tamburini as Creative Director, Tod’s is well-positioned to continue its success in the luxury fashion industry. His expertise and understanding of the brand’s values and commitment to quality and style make him the perfect fit to lead Tod’s into a new era of creativity and innovation. Fashion enthusiasts eagerly anticipate his debut collection and the exciting direction he will bring to the brand.
