“Tommy says the collection [is] for Gigi and friends, so all of my friends will definitely be wearing it”, she said, adding that she’d “love to see” pals Kendall Jenner and Taylor Swift in “the sweater dress”.

The see-now-buy-now trend continues with Tommy Hilfiger, who has just launched his #TommyNow initiative. Designer Tommy Hilfiger chose to take that idea to its most literal conclusion, erecting a real-life carnival on a pier at Manhattan’s South Street Seaport to display his wares. The singer is famous for crafting songs that touch on things that happened to her in her own life.
Earlier, it was reported Swift has donated $5,000 (£3,800) to the family of a fan who is mourning the loss of her sister in a tragic vehicle accident. The “Shake it Off” singer even sang along to Calvin Harris’ and Rihanna’s “This Is What You Came For”, which is a song that she co-wrote.
On a muggy summer Friday night, under a gaggle of strung-up lights and against a stunning city backdrop, Hilfiger displayed designs from his Fall 2016 collection available online the minute they hit the runway as well as his TommyXGigi collection, designed in collaboration with supermodel Gigi Hadid.
Hadid echoed his sentiments, telling ET that “all the girls” walking in the show were her friends.
Though we don’t all have Gigi’s ideal figure, the silhouette was smart on her part, because as most ladies who’ve tried on hundreds (if not thousands, but whose counting) pairs of jeans know, a high waist is universally flattering. She wrote a hit single, “This Is What You Came For”, for ex-boyfriend Calvin Harris under the pseudonym Nils Sjoberg. Earlier in the day, Hadid posted a Snapchat of her man shirtless and playing the guitar with the caption, “Morning handsome”. After seeing a post Meghan’s father posted online, Swift made a decision to grant her wish by surprising her with a 30-minute Facetime session, as previously posted by NY Daily News.
“Thank you to all my fans who support me globally”.
“I am truly sorry to disappoint you”.
“#TOMMYNOW is the ultimate expression of my brand philosophy, and the show I have always wanted to present”, the designer said.
