Tommy Hilfiger is an American designer, born in 1951 in Elmira, New York. His career began in his hometown, where he opened the boutique People’s Place in 1969. In 1985 he founded the Tommy Hilfiger brand, which became a symbol of classic American preppy style with its characteristic blue, white and red logo. The brand has dressed stars such as Aaliyah, Britney Spears and Snoop Dogg, and today it is part of the PVH group.
The first fragrance, Tommy, was launched in 1995, and a year later came the women's Tommy Girl. Both became bestsellers and a symbol of the fresh, youthful American spirit. The brand has also created fragrances with stars such as Beyoncé (True Star) and Enrique Iglesias (True Star Men).
