All the great fashion parties are happening at Arnotts department store lately so it was with a spring in our step that we went along to the launch of the Tommy Hilfiger Icon collection. The new Icon range marks the 25th anniversary of the iconic American brand and is signified by distinctive Kelly green coloured branding.

The event was well attended with guests including TV3’s Anna Daly, looking stylish as ever in a beautiful navy Tommy Hilfiger Runway dress from the Autumn collection, Jayne O’Keeffe of Arnotts, Norman Pratt and his pal Roisin Tierney-Crowe, who takes up her new post as head of PR for L’Oreal Luxury Products this week.

Guests were treated to American style canapés of mini-burgers, baby corndogs and mini Oreo cookie milkshakes, all from Relish Cuisine. Carl Shaaban and Chloe Loughnane modelled key pieces from the Icon collection throughout the evening, highlighting the classic inspiration by well known icons from the last 25 years including Grace Kelly, James Dean and Farrah Fawcet.
