Composed of 61 vacation-friendly looks, the Tommy Hilfiger Spring '16 collection brought island vibrancy to NYFW. This collection of Caribbean style is perfect for next year's resort season.
While designer Tommy Hilfiger used his F/W '15 collection to display his love for American football, his latest collection goes completely south. This collection features a vibrant color palette many islanders can associate with as well as a variety of knits. Hilfiger was sure to include various versions of the mesh marina, which is quite popular in Jamaica as well as other Caribbean countries.
While the knitted swimwear, breezy maxi dresses and striped bucket hats are surely attention-grabbers, the Tommy Hilfiger Spring '16 collection also includes stylish everyday wear such as schoolgirl dresses, satin bomber jackets and decorative two-pieces.
