Hilfiger, Tommy
Pronunciation: Tom-ee Hill-Fig-ur
There’s no denying that the urban crowd made the Tommy Hilfiger brand what it is today. Hilfiger’s clothes are also commonly seen as All-American and preppy, with fresh-faced jocks and peppy cheerleaders modeling his lines. Tommy Hilfiger started his career with a store called People’s Place in his native, Elmira, New York, and in the early days of his career, turned down assistant positions at Calvin Klein and Perry Ellis to concentrate on his own work. Tommy Hilfiger names music as the inspiration for his designs and its no wonders that rappers and rockers alike are huge endorsers of the brand.
