"Such a emblematic anniversary calls for an equally iconic capsule," declares Tommy Hilfiger. The collection, consisting of 17 pieces with a casual and baggy cut, includes a striped rugby shirt that grabs attention, reminiscent of the one worn by Snoop Dogg in his memorable first appearance on Saturday Night Live in 1994, a pivotal moment for music and Hip Hop style.

 The legendary Puffer with the "Big Logo," made famous by Aaliyah and Raekwon, is presented in the typical red-white-blue color scheme of Tommy Hilfiger. The leather biker jacket, an icon popularized by TLC in the early 2000s, is revisited with a sophisticated white interpretation. Completing the offering are the timeless Varsity, in perfect IVY style, and an oversized football-inspired jersey tee.

The photo campaign, captured by Lea Winkler, features two icons of contemporary Hip Hop, Central Cee and GloRilla, posing in a style reminiscent of the "Golden Age of Hip Hop" with garments from the Remastered FW23 collection. Alongside them, the image introduces the digitally animated hip-hop duo Ghost Kidz, in an innovative collaboration with Superplastic.
