Wu-Tang Clan Performs at Tommy Hilfiger’s New York Fashion Week Show

Demos

As the show concluded, Ghostface Killah, Method Man, and Raekwon excitedly jumped from the audience benches to perform their iconic song, “C.R.E.A.M.”

The event took place on one of New York’s bright orange ferries, which typically transport passengers between Manhattan and Staten Island. This ferry is significant as the Wu-Tang Clan originated in Staten Island in the early 1990s.

The American designer chose this unique setting to reflect the “nautical and maritime inspirations that have defined our signature look since 1985,” according to a note from the Spring 2025 collection.

Models showcased casual and sporty outfits featuring sailor stripes and regatta jackets. Among the audience were Olympic champions Gabby Thomas, a 200m sprinter, and gymnast Sunisa Lee.

Tommy Hilfiger, soon celebrating its 40th anniversary, is known for its preppy style but was also popular among hip-hop artists in the 1990s and 2000s.

On Sunday, Questlove, the drummer from the hip-hop group The Roots, also performed by DJing for the Tommy Hilfiger show.

The “John F. Kennedy” ship, which hosted the event, was docked in Manhattan. After 60 years of service, it was purchased from the city by comedians Colin Jost and Pete Davidson from “Saturday Night Live,” who transformed it into an entertainment venue.
