TOMMY CAN YOU HEAR ME?!


HILFIGER TURNS 25 AND PROVES HE CAN STILL ROLL WITH THE YOUNGSTERS.



Tommy put out his spring/summer collection on Sunday at New York Fashion week, marking the 25th anniversary of this American Prep brand.  Known for it's casual cool take on some of our most treasured staples, the pros at Hilfiger are out to prove that they can still punch a little excitement and edge into the sometimes overly khaki, overly rigid sportswear genre. Adding bursts of color, slits of skin and a certain smirk to his non-traditional take on the classic - Hilfiger has me ready to get out my credit card with his highly wearable collection. That's not to say that you should take these looks straight from the runway onto the streets. As with all runway shows, they are amped up a few notches for the sake of a little on-stage theatrics. Take the one or two elements of each look and pair it with basic traditional pieces to transition the look into your life. Oh, and don't worry about looking like a square. These days everyone on the street is a self-involved hipster. When the greasy skinny jean is the norm, going prep is as rebellious as it gets. See the show below.
