Tommy & Dee Hilfiger

Founder, Tommy Hilfiger. Founder, DEESIGNS.  New York

Tommy and Dee Hilfiger are two names synonymous with style and power. Both are successful entrepreneurs in their own right; Tommy with his namesake empire and Dee with her recently launched collection, DEESIGNS for HSN. The duo have translated the very same labour of love and passion of their businesses into their home, which is a carefully curated, museum-like abode at the iconic Plaza in NYC. From their Eloise room, which features a hand-painted, 360° mural to the nautical theme of their youngest son, Sebastian’s room, the Hilfiger’s have applied the very same creativity and thoughtfulness in their home as in their respective lines.

Tommy even took the time to give us an extensive lesson on the Hilfiger history, and told us tales of casting Britney Spears in his ad campaign before anyone knew her and showed us snapshots from the days of Studio 54. We have to say, Dee and Tommy compliment each other so well.

Dee shares a similar passion for the arts and Americana prep epitomized by the Tommy Hilfiger brand. The former Ford model love for fashion inspired her to fill a void in the handbag market by creating a customizable, multi-functional bags. Tommy has devoted years to building the classic Americana brand, which is widely recognized for staying true to the red, white and blue jean classics that play on the preppy aesthetic. Tommy and Dee's sophisticated taste in art – the Warhol’s, Basquiat's, Keith Haring’s and Richard Prince pieces – and their preppy chic closets made our job a breeze.

Disorganization is not an option for me.

This is my office at home. The pieces on the left came from the Duke and the Duchess of Windsor’s estate. The tie is tartan - my favorite and the photo is of our children. My office has an original New York Times sign from the original Times building.

Sevan is so incredibly talented. A true artisan. No one else can make rings like that! Wearing these rings reminds me of my Turkish heritage.

This is in the Eloise room - a whimsical, dream-like circular tower that features a mural painted by the illustrator of Eloise, Mr. Hilary Knight, himself. It's only fitting that the Hilfiger's have an actual 'room on the tippy-top floor' dedicated to Eloise, the fictional character who lived at the Plaza. Hilary Knight was a class act - so talented! He painstakingly labored over every detail. We love Eloise, we love Hilary and we really love how the room turned out.

This bag is from my new line which I’m launching on HSN this March. This is called the “Mustique Bag." It is my stepdaughter Ally’s favourite. Each bag has interchangeable covers. So one bag gives you 7 different looks.

I love shoes... what girl doesn’t? I keep my evening shoes on the higher shelves because they’re much prettier to look at. The everyday shoes are on the bottom. My favourite shoes are Prada, Miu Miu and, of course, Louboutin.

This is a series of Marilyn photos from the last sitting with Bert Stern. They were a gift from Tommy’s ex-wife and I just love them. I am not really obessed with Marilyn. I see her as more of a tragic figure. It must have been torture to live up to that image all the time.
