Remember when Zooey Deschanel came out in 500 Days of Summer, and everyone practically swooned over her enviable wardrobe in the movie?
Her vintage-style ensembles almost steered our attention away from Joseph Gordon-Levitt! It also sparked a massive vintage revival and catapulted the fashion niche to mainstream status.
To further ignite the ongoing excitement, Zooey Deschanel partnered with Tommy Hilfiger to create a collection that combines her retro aesthetic with the brand’s signature sporty flair.

This might be the next big thing after the 3.1 Phillip Lim x Target collaboration and perhaps one thing to drool over before the much-awaited H&M x Alexander Wang collaboration comes out.
The collection, “To Tommy from Zooey,” has undeniable ’50s and ’60s retro charm, with hints of vintage tennis garb inspiration.
Known for her signature bangs, she also ensured that the clothes were loud in print and color while boasting simple silhouettes.
A few days ago, during the collection’s launch at Macy’s, where the clothes will be distributed, the New Girl actress looked cute in a polka-dotted shirtdress from the collection.

The polka-dot dress exuded a fresh, playful vibe compared to the more formal frock she donned earlier. At this event, she dazzled in an A-line dress featuring a bold geometric print. You can now purchase the dresses Zooey is wearing in the photos above:
