Tommy Hilfiger & Zendaya unleashed an immersive online VR fashion show
Since introducing his TommyNow experiential runway show with Gigi Hadid in fall 2016 in New York, Tommy Hilfiger has literally taken his show on the road to Los Angeles, London, Milan, Shanghai and, most recently, to Paris in March 2019. Now Hilfiger is finally bringing TommyNow back to New York City later this week, with the fall 2019 "see now, buy now" event at Harlem’s legendary Apollo Theater on Sunday Sept. 8.
For those who can’t be in New York to witness the event firsthand, Hilfiger has created a virtual reality e-commerce experience. Doing away with the need for a headset, the brand is using a web-based VR technology that will be available by desktop or mobile at tommy.com. It will provide a global audience with unique, real-time access to the runway, backstage, front row and a pop-up shop at the TommyNow show at the Apollo on Sept. 8, starting at 5:30 p.m. PT.
Since shuttering its flagship store on Fifth Avenue earlier this year, Hilfiger is continuing to branch out with new ways to reach fans of the label. Before the show, those using the site will be able to visit the virtual pop-up merchandise shop, look at clothing hanging on backstage dressing racks, and shop styles worn by the models on the catwalk.
For those in New York City, a Tommy x Zendaya bus will be parked outside the Apollo on the day of the show to take the experience to the streets of Harlem. Ahead of the show, the collection will be exclusively available from the bus for purchase. For a week after the show, the bus will travel to another as-yet-undisclosed spot in New York where fans can step inside the "TZH"-monogrammed vehicle, decorated with a snake-skin inspired pattern, to shop runway styles.
As part of the special event, all sales proceeds of festival-inspired Tommy x Apollo x Zendaya T-shirts, designed exclusively for the event and sold at the TommyNow show, will be donated to the Apollo, of which Hilfiger is an official corporate sponsor.
