MANILA, Philippines - Tomato’s pre-holiday collection draws inspiration from the minimalist style of the 1940s as well as French glamour fashion, and update these with modern fabric patterns that are rendered in contemporary silhouette. Women and men, here are the pieces that will make you stand out this season.
For Women
The mullet skirt accentuates feminine curves in soft comfortable polyester material that looks fabulously light as a feather — as well as glam and chic.
From slim fit pants to tops, floral patterns are the new unexpected trend. Tomato has exciting florals of cascading array of sunflowers, rose lilies, and other varieties of miniature flowers come alive to make a vibrant style statement.
Tomato also brings the return of the white jacket. It’s time to channel your modern classic vintage side and go glam and sophisticated with a cotton spandex white jacket and trousers, which have a vibe of the modern tuxedo.
Wear patterns inspired by French street painters’ brush marks in watercolor in single or mixed toned palettes. These fashion expressions bring new excitement to your usual stripes and polka patterns.
Consider, also, Tomato’s trench coat. If you can’t be a spy, why not look like one? Accentuate this skinny jeans or a long skirt to the knee, and finish it off with a sheer top.
Finally, women, get your animal print fix. Tomato has versatile patterns of lines, squares, triangles, circles and rectangles that come together to interpret your favorite animal prints.
For Men
1940s men’s fashion was influenced by the wartime period. For Tomato Green (Tomato’s men’s line), it’s a return to the basics — the no-fuss attitude to clothing. Tomato Green appeals to the active lifestyle of men of today.
Preppy takes a new twist by combining classic and trendy pieces in sexier cuts and fit. Pair these with your grandpa-inspired cardigans, and basic tee underneath.
The white shirt is an old standby — an ever-reliable piece in any man’s closet. Tomato Green updates this with a fashionable look that goes beyond any classroom or office board room.
Men can also look rugged with western plaid and checks. This versatile pattern is truly fashionable for every occasion. And for the guys who want to make a fashion statement that says “I’m an artist,” Tomato Green’s new hipster pieces make for comfy dressing that is relaxed and not over the top.
