\n\tThis marks a milestone year for Todd Snyder \u2014 2026 is the 15th anniversary of his brand.<\/p>\n
\n\tAnd his fall collection is intended to serve as a retrospective of the key pieces that have defined the Todd Snyder line over the years, but modernized for today.<\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cWhen I originally started the brand, I was always thinking: what are those things that are familiar, and how do I make them new,\u201d the designer said during a walk-through of his collection at his New York studio. \u201cFrom the beginning, the idea was simple: take the essential pieces of a man\u2019s wardrobe, from the camel-hair overcoat to the white oxford shirt, the chino, the unconstructed suit, and make them better. Not louder, not trendier, but with more luxurious materials, sharper proportions and more thoughtful construction. The goal was never reinvention but refinement.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tSo whether it\u2019s a cashmere sweatshirt or a military-inspired overcoat in a technical fabric, the goal is to create pieces \u201cthat are going to endure time and last forever.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tHe succeeded, with a fall collection that had a familiar feel but was also on trend. \u201cYou still have that ease, you still have that drape, but the proportions are changing ever so slightly,\u201d Snyder said, pointing to chinos that are slightly oversize and a trenchcoat in a double-face nylon cotton with a drop shoulder as examples. \u201cThere\u2019s always this tension between classic and modernity and how do I balance that,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\n\tAlthough rooted in American heritage, the collection \u2014 which was titled \u201cAmerican Form\u201d \u2014 also referenced other countries that have influenced his line over the years, notably Italy and Japan. Snyder cited the luxurious fabrics and drape he\u2019s borrowed from Italy as well as the \u201cJapanese precision\u201d he employed in selvedge chinos and other pieces.<\/p>\n
\n\tThere were also a lot of British influences in the line. \u201cA lot of the patterns were inspired by British style, whether it\u2019s herringbone, gun-checks or glen plaids,\u201d he said, pointing to an overcoat with a raglan sleeve and a balmacaan shoulder and a gardener\u2019s jacket in heavyweight cashmere.<\/p>\n
\n\tSuits continue to be the brand\u2019s bestselling category, Snyder said, and he updated the offering for fall with 1940s-inspired high-waited, pleated swing trousers. Other key pieces included a knit sack suit and a camel hair coat transformed into a day shawl.<\/p>\n
\n\tLeather was also a key part of the collection, offered in everything from a Dylan trucker to bombers and overcoats.<\/p>\n
\n\tSnyder teased a collaboration that will be coming later this year, this one with Tecova, a brand best known for its cowboy boots. The offering, which will debut for fall, will include ropers in leather and crocodile skins.<\/p>\n
\n\tSnyder said he decided against holding a show this season, despite the anniversary, because the brand doesn\u2019t wholesale and the cost of a runway presentation is better spent focusing on his consumer. \u201cBut we might do one in the future,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
