“I've known Gigi and her family for years, and it has been amazing to watch her grow into one of the world's top models and most-followed fashion influencers,” said Tommy Hilfiger. “Gigi has walked in our runway shows and now we are thrilled to continue our collaboration with her as the new face of Tommy Hilfiger womenswear and fragrance. She is truly the definition of today's 'Tommy Girl' – her magnetic personality is bright and always optimistic, and her style is confident, effortless and cool.”
Gigi Hadid said, “I think our collection celebrates the iconic Tommy lifestyle and mixes a bit of everything: there are styles that are really hippie-chic, styles that are sporty streetwear, and styles that are tomboy but girly; everyone's is going to love a different part of it.”
Hadid's ambassadorship reflects the company's strategic commitment to expanding its women's businesses globally; while already a significant contributor to global revenues, there is a strong potential for additional growth across all women's categories, the release said.
