Tommy Hilfiger

What Tommy Hilfiger does

Tommy Hilfiger is a global premium lifestyle apparel and accessories brand founded in 1985 and owned by PVH Corp. (NYSE: PVH). It designs, markets, and distributes men's, women's, kids', and baby apparel, footwear, and accessories across categories including denim, outerwear, swimwear, underwear, and adaptive clothing, with sub-brands Tommy Jeans, Tommy Adaptive, TH Performance, and Tommy ICONS. The brand reported $4.77 billion in revenue for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2026, up 3.9% year-over-year, with a global retail, wholesale, and e-commerce footprint anchored by the usa.tommy.com DTC platform and the Hilfiger Club loyalty program.

The company's technology stack includes digital sampling (achieving an 80% reduction in physical sample production), AR-powered virtual try-on for accessories and apparel, and a recently announced PVH Corp.-wide collaboration with OpenAI to co-create custom AI capabilities supporting product design, demand planning, inventory optimization, and consumer engagement. It also uses generative AI for trend analysis in partnership with IBM and the Fashion Institute of Technology. Tommy Hilfiger monetizes primarily through one-time apparel and accessory sales (DTC e-commerce, owned retail stores, and wholesale to department stores and specialty retailers) supplemented by recurring licensing royalties (notably eyewear through Safilo Group, renewed through 2031). The brand operates a "fashion-tainment" go-to-market model, leveraging celebrity ambassadors (Travis Kelce, Jisoo, Machine Gun Kelly, Gigi Hadid, Rafael Nadal), sports partnerships (Cadillac F1, Liverpool FC, U.S. SailGP), and seasonal capsule collections to drive cultural relevance and conversion across global markets.
