A Portion of Proceeds Donated to Organizations Supporting Children with Cancer



TOD'S captivates with its fine materials, skilled craftsmanship, and simple, beautiful designs. Princess Diana, known as a devoted admirer of the brand, shared this philosophy, forging a deep bond with TOD'S that is said to have inspired the name of the 'D-Bag,' created by stitching two pieces of leather together with a central seam.

Princess Diana, beloved by the British people and the world, was known for her compassion and generosity. She leveraged her fame to engage in sincere humanitarian and social contribution activities with large-scale, clear objectives, such as landmine removal and AIDS prevention. Even now, Princess Diana's unique presence, much like her character, continues to enchant people worldwide.

The photobook 'Timeless Icons' brings together images of her, who continues to be an icon of quality, virtue, intelligence, and beauty. With Carlo Mazzoni as editorial director, it features shots with former South African President Nelson Mandela and Mother Teresa, as well as images of her wearing TOD'S iconic 'Gommini' shoes and the 'D-Bag'.

Furthermore, a portion of the proceeds from 'Timeless Icons' will be donated to 'CLIC Sargent,' a UK charity that supports children with cancer, an organization Princess Diana was also involved with.

Princess Diana and TOD'S, both actively engaged in social contribution activities. While reaffirming Princess Diana's enduring charm, we also wish to draw attention once more to the various activities she was involved in.
