About Tommy Hilfiger

If you are looking for a luxury item, then Tommy Hilfiger is the place to be! Since 1985, the brand has been known and loved for its American heritage style. You recognise the characteristic blue, red and white colours from a distance, which makes the Tommy Hilfiger items even more wanted. Tommy Hilfiger carries a wide range of fashion items for the entire family.

The history of Tommy Hilfiger

Tommy Hilfiger, the designer and founder of the brand, named the brand after himself. Little Tommy was born in 1951 in Elmira, New York. Thomas Jacob Hilfiger, his full name, was the second child of nine in an Irish-American family. Hilfiger’s father ran a jewellery shop, and Tommy’s mother worked as a nurse.

Tommy did not do well in school. He spent most of his time daydreaming, and eventually dropped out. He started his own clothing company before he reached his senior year in high school. He invested all his savings in 20 pairs of jeans to sell in his shop, The People’s Place. His shop caught on with the local youth thanks to the hippy-style items and flared bottoms. Within a few years, it grew into a chain of 7 shops. Years later, Tommy went bankrupt, and his company went out of business in 1976.

Hilfiger decided to move to Manhattan, New York to make a career in the fashion scene. He started working as a designer at Jordache Jeans, but got fired. While many famous designers, like Perry Ellis and Calvin Klein, offered him a job, Hilfiger decided to work at the international clothing manufacturer, Mohan Murjani. Together, they launched the first men’s collection under the name Tommy Hilfiger in 1985.

Tommy Hilfiger’s first campaign

Tommy Hilfiger may not have done well in school, but he certainly has an eye for marketing. His first campaign in 1985, with the collaboration of Georges Lois, was immediately noticed. The launch campaign was in Times Square, and did not feature any stunning model or even fashion. It only showed an immense billboard with the names of the greatest American designers of that time: Ralph Lauren, Perry Ellis, and Calvin Klein. Tommy Hilfiger counted himself among them in the now world-famous logo. It did not take long before everyone in the United States knew that a new lifestyle brand had entered the fashion world. 

The popularity of Tommy Hilfiger

It was not until the 1990s that Tommy Hilfiger became popular, mainly due to the hip-hop industry. The hip-hop culture emerged, and rappers like Snoop Dogg regularly wore Tommy Hilfiger clothes. The free publicity made the sales of Tommy clothes skyrocket. Tommy Hilfiger also sponsored concerts by the world’s most famous artists, like the Rolling Stones’ No Security Tour and Britney Spears’ first concert ever.

Despite the brand’s popularity in the 90s, things went downhill rapidly in the early 2000s. Tommy Hilfiger had to sell the company to none other than Calvin Klein owner Philip van Heusen.

But Tommy Hilfiger made a comeback, and the clothes are now more popular than ever. Hilfiger doesn’t only join forces with musicians; may famous athletes are on the long list of collaborations as well. The brand has already released several collections with Lewis Hamilton.

Tommy Hilfiger logo

You might not immediately notice it, but the letter H shows in the Tommy Hilfiger logo. If you turn the logo a little, you can spot the H through the blue stripes on the sides, and the red and white area in the middle. The colours red, white and blue symbolise the American flag, and the Tommy Hilfiger brand is famous for its timeless essentials in American Heritage style.
