Tommy Hilfiger Fall 2012

With plaid, suede, leather, and jewel tones, Town and Country was an apt title for Tommy Hilfiger’s Fall 2012 collection.

The collection had an over-arching preppy-ness to it, but silhouettes were distinctly military-inspired with rows of buttons down outerwear, tailored separates and coats, and cinched waists. With riding pants and hunting jackets, however, there was also a running equestrian theme pervading the collection — including the accessories (think riding hats and boots) and via a handful of prints.

The collection’s strongest point, knits stood out, most notably a dark mustard cable-knit sweater and an olive green one, each with shoulder-area contrasting suede patches. Also worth singling out were the equestrian themed silk cable-knit print dresses.
