Tommy Hilfiger x Gigi Hadid Collection: Review, Outfits, Highlights, Taylor Swift's Outfit & The Show
5:01:00 PM
As most fashion fanatics have heard by now, the brand new collection by designer Tommy Hilfiger and supermodel Gigi Hadid is OUT NOW, and the fashion world is losing its mind over these drop-dead gorgeous military-prep style pieces! Now Tommy Hilfiger is already well known in the fashion industry as the all-American prep brand, but this collaboration puts a fun, trendy nautical-themed/military style spin on traditional preppy clothing. To celebrate the launch of the collaboration, TH put on a festive, carnival-esque extravaganza runway show at Tommy Pier, featuring some VERY famous faces, and the opener of the show was none other than the stunning Gigi Hadid.
Among the guests was super star and Gigi's BFF Taylor Swift, rocking an adorable crisp, white sailor shirt, black corduroy shorts with gold buttons, and some super fun, shiny red velvet knee-high boots! Definitely feeling the TH, nautical-themed vibe from this outfit!

Also present was Yolanda Foster (Gigi's mom), and model Martha Hunt, who sat next to Taylor during the show. And yes, that jacket Yolanda is wearing is the same one from the collection, and the same jacket Gigi wore to kick off the show. Talk about a proud mom!
Love the leather jacket with gold stars and the thigh-high, black sheer stockings - definitely one of the more edgier outfits from the show!
Someone please get me that over-sized cable-knit sweater on the right for Christmas, because it's exactly the type of thing I want to snuggle up in next to the fireplace during the chillier fall and winter months. I also love the white and navy blue stripes going on here, as well as the chic silhouette of that long, sleek, navy trench coat.
Can these over sized sweaters/hoodies be any comfier? The furry one with the red and white anchor is my favorite of the bunch.
Classic Tommy Hilfiger campaigns, showing models presumably on an old-school collegiate-style campus, dressed in all-American classic pieces, from the quintessential varsity crew jackets to crisp, collared shirts, khaki pants, wool sweaters, and tweed blazers.
Now as much as I adore the classic, old-school preppy TH style, I cannot help but love the fresh, modern, and youthful twist Gigi and Tommy put on these classic pieces to create a one-of-a-kind collection. I'm going to highlight some of my favorite pieces from the collection and outfits from the show, as well as offer some fun inspiration/ideas on how to style these amazing pieces!
#1) Tommy x Gigi Cotton-Twill Band Jacket
Ok seriously, do I really even need to explain why this jacket is my favorite piece from the collection? Not only does it remind me of colonial-era British military uniforms, with its cross-twill white stripes and silver buttons, but the blue and white color scheme and the stripes around the sleeves gives it that classic TH nautical, sailor-vibe. It's just something so classic and essential to any fashionista, not just preppy collegiate students. I think this jacket will definitely spice up a plain white tee and will go great with dark, skinny jeans and some tall, over the knee boots. It's no wonder such a gorgeous piece is already sold out on the TH website.
How to Style: Pair it with dark skinny jeans, a polka dot silk scarf, over-the-knee stiletto boots with gold buckles, and a classic black purse.
#2) Tommy x Gigi Roll Neck Sweater
I am a sucker for anything creamy white and cable knit. This chunky sweater is a blend of aplaca, wool, and polymide, ensuring a super soft, luxurious, and stretchy fit. A white cable-knit sweater should already be a closet staple for the winter and falls seasons, but what makes this sweater special is its cute, cropped shape, so you can pair with extra high skinny jeans or mini-skirts!
#3) Tommy x Gigi Wool Cape
How can something so huge and boxy be so chic and fashionable instead of lazy and formless? TH works his magic with this stunning, military-inspired, earl grey wool cape, with logo insignia badges on the shoulders, double-breasted plackets, and branded gold buttons. Yes, Gigi looks like she just graduated at top of her class from the Air Force academy, but she still looks chic and put together. The key to styling such large clothing to pair it with fitted clothing, like skinny jeans. With plain white sneakers, this cape looks breezy and casual, perfect for those chilly fall days when you just want to chuck on something cute yet comfortable.
#3) Tommy x Gigi Silk Sailor Blouse
I seriously cannot get over how adorable this silky, creamy white sailor blouse is! Yes, this is the very same blouse worn by Taylor Swift to the show, and I definitely see why she chose this piece! Everything from the black stripes detailing on the sleeves to the playful v-neck collar just screams polished, sophisticated, yet fun and youthful, which is definitely a nice twist on classic TH style. And can we just talk about that back panel detailing? A shirt like this risks erring on the side of costume-y and tacky, but TH pulls it off with classic, crisp colors, clean lines, and a flattering body-hugging silhouette. Extra brownie points for turning a Halloween costume staple into a high fashion staple.
So there you have it folks - my top four favorite pieces from the entire Tommy x Gigi collection! These ultra-covetable pieces are already selling out like hotcakes, so make sure you snag yours before their gone here!
