Tommy Hilfiger Only Available At Macy's
Macy's and designer Tommy Hilfiger have reached a deal that will make the store Hilfiger's exclusive "department store" retailer.
"It will increase the number of Hilfiger shops in high-volume Macy's stores, renovate and upgrade existing shops and feature Hilfiger collections in its marketing campaigns," according to CNNMoney.
Tommy Hilfiger will still operate its own free-standing stores and sell merchandise on its website, but the rest belongs to Macy's. Is Tommy Hilfiger still cool? Macy's thinks so:
"This is a very big deal for us," the chief executive of Macy's, Terry J. Lundgren, told the New York Times. "Tommy is very significant brand."
Whatever you say, Terry. Ours is not to reason why.

When I was in a Girl's Secondary School in the 90s, it was a trend to have at least one T.H. item. I had a navy blue sweater (my school that year switch from grey sweaters to navy blue sweaters). So, I guess it was cool back then. I don't like TH anymore.
DRGIRLFRIEND, you are soooooo right. I've also seen TH clothes at TJMaxx. This brand is pretty ghetto for my taste.
Yessss!!!!!! Tommy pants with a Donald Trump shirt. We're struttin' now. Thank G-d for Macy's to keep us current on all the latest fashion trends.
Oh, and since Macy's swallowed up pretty much all the other department stores in the country TH merchandise being "exclusive" to Macy's is a big deal, how?
Yeah, the TH clothes don't do it for me, either. BUT, I bought a TH comforter at Macy's. The packing was slightly damaged, so I netted a $250 blanket for $25. As soon as I got home, I trimmed off the stupid-ass TH ribbon, leaving me with a REALLY nice comforter sans the dumbass logo.
I don't care how nice the merch is, I don't want to wear--or wake up to--a logo.
#1. TH lost its cachet about +10 years ago. I shudder to think who would think this was exclusive couture and be proud of wearing it.
#2. Unless they change the name on the door back to Marshall Field's they wont be getting a damn nickel of mine.
#3. The shareholders should hang Terry Lundgren from the highest oak tree in Ohio for what this moron has done. Macy's North (MF) is bleeding to death and the other divisions are doing poorly as well. Shoppers from the former May Company stores have rejected Macy's like a virus. Way to shop....
