Iconic Americana and Tommy Hilfiger are synonymous and neither goes out of style. To keep the look current, it’s all about modern tweaks to renew the throwback vibe, so it’s no surprise we’re obsessing over the new Tommy Hilfiger x Shawn Mendes collection. This collab of 28 items delivers fresh foundational pieces infused with TH’s signature sportswear aesthetic (hello, perfectly slouchy tees and ribbed racerback tank) and all-time prep classics like the ultimate varsity jacket, twill blazer, and perfect pleated trousers (again, the slouch is everything).
Sustainability is a focus, too, in the form of pieces made from organic and recycled fibers, including three timeless denim buys: a straight-leg jean, cutoff shorts, and a denim jacket. Basically, the collection is giving classics reborn, and we are here for it. So, catch us rocking the assortment repeatedly in all possible combinations. Here, we’ve laid out our fave formulas for you to do the same.
1
Go collegiate cool by teaming a cropped hoodie with pleated trousers (the slouchier, the better). An iconic TH flag bralette is the perfect foundation.
2
A logo bikini peeking from the top of your trousers paired with a crop top fully flaunts an iconic motif.
3
Double up on denim and keep it breezy for summer with cutoffs and a midriff-baring tee.
4
Go full-on patriotic with an oversized polo; tuck in on one side to reveal the perfect cutoffs.
5
A simple tank and jeans are steadfast cool. Make it all the cozier with a hoodie layer on standby.
