Tommy Hilfiger’s Arrival in Sydney

In November 2019, Sydney Luxury Cruise and its team had the privilege of enjoying Tommy Hilfiger’s company on the MV BEL, marking an unforgettable Tommy Hilfiger Sydney Harbour Cruise experience. Tommy Hilfiger, a world-renowned name synonymous with fashion, art, and entertainment, visited Australia for the very first time — and his arrival was nothing short of iconic.

This was not just any visit. The American designer, famous for his “classic American cool” style, arrived Down Under to celebrate the opening of Vogue Australia and to further establish his brand’s presence in the Australian fashion landscape. As part of his tour, Tommy attended several high-profile events across Sydney and Melbourne, making waves in both cities with his signature charisma and style.

“Our brand is experiencing incredible momentum in Australia, with our philosophy of inclusivity and democracy truly resonating with our consumers there,” said Tommy Hilfiger. “For many years, it has been my dream to visit Australia. The celebrities, influencers, models and fans I have met at our shows throughout the years have always effortlessly fused their relaxed and laidback vibe with our classic American cool style. I am looking forward to seeing how they bring their unique twist to our brand.”

A Celebration on Sydney Harbour
The tour commenced on November 14, 2019, when an exclusive guestlist of VIPs gathered for a showstopping event set right on Sydney Harbour. This was the moment when Sydney Luxury Cruise had the pleasure of welcoming Tommy Hilfiger and his guests aboard the luxurious MV BEL. He was joined by his wife, Susie Hilfiger, and Lucky Blue Smith, a global model and long-time Tommy campaign star.

Among the evening’s distinguished guests were Gemma Ward, Jesinta Franklin, Cameron Robbie, Yan Yan Chan, Tom Derickx, and Carmen Hamilton — a blend of Australia’s most recognisable faces in fashion and entertainment. The night’s energy was perfectly complemented by a live set from DJ FLEXMAMI, creating a vibrant atmosphere as the sun set over Sydney Harbour.

The MV BEL Experience

Dressed head to toe in his own brand, Tommy Hilfiger boarded MV BEL at Campbells Cove, ready for an evening that captured the true essence of Sydney’s luxury lifestyle. The Tommy Hilfiger Sydney Harbour Cruise took him across the sparkling harbour waters to Jones Bay Wharf, where an exclusive afterparty awaited on a superyacht.

As the vessel glided smoothly across the harbour, guests enjoyed champagne, canapés, and warm summer breezes under the night sky. The MV BEL, with her sleek design and sophisticated atmosphere, provided the perfect backdrop for such a prestigious occasion. Laughter, conversation, and the glow of the city lights framed a night that celebrated not only fashion but also the magic of Sydney Harbour itself.

A Vessel Made for Iconic Moments

MV BEL is as beautiful as she is unique — a vessel that embodies elegance and comfort. From secluded bays to exclusive events, she’s designed to deliver exceptional experiences on the water. It’s no surprise that Sydney Luxury Cruise was chosen to host such a distinguished guest.
