After curating a summer capsule for Tommy Hilfiger last year, Sofia Richie Grainge, daughter of iconic pop singer Lionel Richie, has co-designed a capsule collection titled ‘Sofia For Tommy’. The collection takes inspiration from prep silhouettes and vintage nautical flags, and features classic, easy-to-style pieces like wide-leg denim, tailored blazers, the trench, striped knitwear and dresses in cream, crimson and navy.
“[Tommy] is someone I’ve looked up to as a designer and a creative force ever since I started working in the fashion industry,” Grainge wrote in an official statement. “I’m so proud to introduce a collection that embodies effortless sophistication for the everyday. These pieces were built for limitless self-expression and a deep love of authentic, classic style — values that Tommy and I both share.”
“Sofia represents the modern multihypenate woman, capturing the strength and depth of today’s generation. As a model and entrepreneur, she has captivated audiences with her modern take on timeless style. Sofia elevates classic stapes into contemporary must-haves that set the tone for a new era of style,” said Hilfiger.

The Sofia for Tommy capsule continues Hilfiger’s partnerships with women such as Gigi Hadid, Hailey Bieber and Zendaya. The collection will be available on tommy.com, in Tommy Hilfiger stores worldwide and through select wholesale partners. Retail prices range from $50 to $425 and sizes go from XXS to XXL.
‘Sofia For Tommy’, campaign
Since she’s starred in two Tommy Hilfiger campaigns it didn’t come as a surprise that Richie Grainge modelled for this one as well. Shot by Alexandra Nataf, the first look is Richie Grainge in the Sleeveless Stripe Dress layered over the Shirred Skirt. For the second shot, the supermodel changed into the Colorblock Stripe Sweater. Next, she cinched the Trench Coat over a nautical-designed knit. Grainge then wears the crimson Double-Breasted Blazer with wide-leg pants. Finally, she closed the photoshoot in a crisp white button-down Boyfriend Shirt. My favourite is the trench… What’s yours?
