TOMMY HILFIGER: $400M
Tommy Hilfiger has created an All-American-style fashion empire. A successful professional, in the early ’70s, the product of upstate New York drained his meager pocket of $150 to launch his first clothes shop, People’s Place. To immediately begin his own brand of original pieces, Hilfiger focused on the momentum of this first outlet. Since then, his name has become an aspiring term for the chic lifestyle. Tommy’s personal fortune is valued at $400 million, while his company’s revenue as of 2015 was $6.7 billion. He does not own it anymore, though. He sold it to Apax Partners for $1.6 billion in 2006. They resold it in 2010 to Phillips-Van Heusen for $3 billion. The chief design consultant remains Hilfiger.
