Reflecting on the label’s 30-year heritage, the collection plays with the established codes of American fashion, luxuriously reimagined with a modern athletic twist.

The 64 year old founder of the brand states, “American football has always been one of my favorite sports, and for fall 2015, we look to the iconic game for inspiration in our advertising campaign and collection.” Mr Hilfiger also added, “As we commemorate our milestone 30th anniversary, we capture all the eclectic details of game-day fashion — from athletic stripes to metallic touches and collegiate insignia, all reinvented with our trademark twist that’s irreverent and cool.”

The latest campaign is expected to go globally public on August 3, with a multimedia program that includes print, traditional display and social media. The print ads will run in September issues, with cover gatefolds and double pages in magazines such as Vogue, Elle, Vanity Fair, InStyle, Marie Claire, Glamour and Harper’s Bazaar.
