Tommy Hilfiger presented his Spring 2025 collection aboard a decommissioned Staten Island Ferry. The iconic American designer seamlessly blended classic preppy aesthetics with a fresh nautical twist, offering a modern take on collegiate sportswear.
The collection featured a range of versatile pieces that effortlessly combined style and comfort. Standout pieces included Breton and Ithaca striped sweaters and shirts, reimagined with bold color blocking in Hilfiger’s signature red, white and blue palette. Lightweight regatta jackets and utility pants offered a relaxed yet polished look, perfect for warmer weather.
Tommy Hilfiger’s approach to tailoring emphasized ease and fluidity, with flowing silhouettes in line with current fashion trends. The designer put his own spin on shorts, offering oversized, double-pleated versions that hit just below the knee – a refreshing alternative to the ultra-short styles seen elsewhere.
Other key pieces in the collection included linen and leather varsity jackets, cuffed chinos, hand-knit Ivy League-inspired sweaters and 1950s-inspired polo shirts. Deconstructed trench coats added a touch of sophistication to the casual-leaning lineup.
The show’s venue – a decommissioned ferry soon to be transformed into an entertainment venue – provided the perfect backdrop for Hilfiger’s nautical-meets-collegiate vision. The designer’s ability to reinvent classic American style while maintaining his brand’s core identity was on full display.
