Pearl Lee is moving from one powerhouse brand to another, taking on a newly created role at Tommy Hilfiger. Lee joins Tommy as vice president, communications for North America. She was most recently vice president of public relations at Ralph Lauren Corp. and has held positions at BCBG Max Azria Group and Fendi Americas. She reports to longtime Tommy staffer Abdel El Hamri, senior vice president, marketing and communications, The Americas, and global communications at Hilfiger.
Lee joins the brand at a bustling time: Later this year it launches a capsule collection with Gigi Hadid, and the designer is planning to release his memoir in the Fall.
