TH Richard Phibbs_2010Image: Ralph Lauren.

All American designer Tommy Hilfiger has just announced that he will be publishing his own memoir with Ballantine Books, an imprint of Random House, this fall that will also coincide with the 30th anniversary of the Tommy Hilfiger brand.

“I’m thrilled to publish Tommy’s personal story,” said Jennifer Tung, Ballantine’s Editorial Director for Nonfiction in a statement. “After three decades in the business, he’s never lost his curiosity or entrepreneurial spirit. Now he’s ready to reveal the man behind the brand and share his wisdom with readers of all generations.”

Hilfiger, 63, known for his classic and preppy East Coast lifestyle, will chronicle personal stories from his early childhood to his formative years in Elmira, NY, as well as his origins in the fashion industry. The memoir will also touch on his setbacks, triumphs, and sheer determination, which eventually drove him to build a multi-billion dollar global lifestyle brand.

“Reflecting on my experiences in the fashion industry over the last 30-plus years has been a wild ride, filled with milestone moments that have defined both my career and personal life,” said the designer. “I always believe the best is yet to come, but so far: it’s been the adventure of a lifetime.”

Fans of the Tommy Hilfiger brand will certainly be waiting in anticipation for this personal and inside look at the life of one of the most iconic American designers.

For Fall/Winter 2014, your favorite family of good looking and well-dressed outdoor enthusiasts—we wish, that actually describes no one’s family in real life—The Hilfigers, head to cooler climates in Tommy Hilfiger‘s Fall/Winter 2014 campaign. Set against the mountainous landscape of Lake Tahoe—where California meets Nevada—”la víe en rõpe,” turns the wild outdoors into an outpost for casual prep. The series stars a few very familiar faces—Arthur Kulkov, Julia Hafstrom, Bernard Fouquet, RJ King, Marlon Teixeira, and Luke Willett—as well as welcomes some new kids to the club including: Malaika Firth, Ophelie Guillermand, Lexi Boling, Emma Balfour, RJ Rogenski, Conrad Bromfield, Abiah Hostvedt, and a St. Bernard named Buck. In addition the new castings, the campaign also sees the American brand’s introduction of a new brass concept logo design, giving a rustic update to the classic one of red, white, and blue and showing that the brand’s spirit for adventure—much like The Hilfigers—is very much still alive.
