Beforebecoming the face of the brand, Tommy admitted that he started by sendingher some clothes first. "I sent the preppy casual summer dresses andthings like that," he said. "I hope she wears them."
Pippa would follow in the footsteps of stars like Katie Holmes, whowas a brand ambassador, and Kendall Jenner who walked in a recent Tommy fashionshow. And while Kate has stricter rules when it comes to endorsing anyproducts, Pippa has a bit freer reign on what she wears. "She’s not as under themicroscope," Tommy added about the 31-year-old.
In the meantime, the designer, known for his country club chic looks is excited about his latest celeb to sign on. "We just signed Rafael Nadal," he shared. "He just became the headliner for my scent that we are launching this fall."
