Southern European Gentlemen Tomes

The Tod's Italian Style Book Collects Portraits of Italian Men

— October 22, 2012 — Fashion
The Tod's Italian Style Book gathers together portraits of Italian men at their most refined. These gentlemen wear classy suits and are all about the polished look that defines classic Italian style. The portraits in the collection were curated by Donatella Sartorio and edited by Skira Editore. The style of the book should be considered less street style, and more weekend family estate photography.

The book features "elegant Italian Men with the ability of combining good taste and ethics, modernity and tradition, beauty and competence." Along with the book, Tod's is also releasing a free app, which contains extra material. So, if you are one who appreciates refined European style, you should pick up this book to sit on your coffee table, or pick up the app to sit on your iPad home screen.
