Tommy Hilfiger Catwalk Fashion Show Womenswear New York FW2013

For his fall 2013 women’s collection Tommy Hilfiger drew from the same inspiration as for his men’s show: Savoile Row meets Ivy League. A key inspiration was Tommy Nutter, the man who gave Savile Row a swinging Sixties profile, dressing all the cool people like Beatles, Mick Jagger and Twiggy types included. Nutter loved fabric mixes — mash-ups of plaids, checks, tartans and more. Hilfiger opened his show with a group of coats and separates in various combinations, the mannish tailoring often offset by Mod-like mini kilts. The outerwear continued with printed shearlings, ponyskins, bonded khaki mackintosh coats and cozy toppers made of teddy-bear fleece.
