  • Hey, welcome a.

  • D Come on in to our plaza apartment.

  • Mm hmm.

  • You're gonna do the tour.

  • Why don't you start the tour?

  • Why don't you start the tour?

  • All right.

  • I'll start the tour.

  • She's better at it.

  • This is our entry hall.

  • This leads right on to basically our living room.

  • This is one of my favorite spots in the apartment, sort of little hanging out nook where we read books or magazines and have a drink and chat.

  • There's a lot of history in the plaza.

  • The Beatles stayed here.

  • The rolling stones stayed here.

  • Marilyn Monroe stayed here.

  • We just think it's iconic and above anything else.

  • We love the location.

  • You see all the way across the 59th Street Bridge and all the buildings in the area are lit.

  • So you have a whole different vibe at night.

  • And if you follow us through here, we can show you the dining room, the dining room we never use.

  • Okay.

  • I think we've probably had three dinners here.

  • We usually either have take out or we go out.

  • This is our little bar area Tommy.

  • You usually are a chardonnay drinker, is that correct?

  • That's correct with me.

  • This is my drink.

  • Don Julio 1942.

  • I would say this is a pretty important spot in our house.

  • All right, So through these doors is the kitchen.

  • I can't say that the kitchen sees a lot of cooking action because after all, that's what restaurants are for, although you do make the occasional piece of toast.

  • This is one of my favorite rooms in the entire house?

  • D said I want a french bistro in the house.

  • I thought is that going to be a little to Disney or something?

  • She started pulling ideas together.

  • Found this black and white tile for the floor, the black and white marble and it came together in a way that was really surprising to me.

  • I love it and it's my favorite in the house.

  • So we're going to go into the den.

  • Now this room is actually maybe the most modern room in the house.

  • D wanted all the TVs behind mirrors.

  • It's a mirror.

  • No, it's a tv, no it's a mirror.

  • It's a T.

  • V.

  • Trying to figure out how to turn it off.

  • There we go.

  • Turn room off.

  • Okay, we did it.

  • If you guys come in here, we have something special to show you.

  • This is my office.

  • These were a gift from Mick Jagger.

  • These books were gifts from Karl Lagerfeld, we have a painting.

  • My wife bought me for my birthday from Charles Wiggins of the plaza, my favorite photo of my wife by antoine burglary and any Liebowitz family portrait of our seven Children.

  • And sometimes Deanna come in just to get away from anything that may be going on in the rest of the apartment.

  • Uh huh.

  • One of the kids, one of the kids, one of the kids.

  • There you go.

  • This sign was one of the original New York Times signs on 43rd Street at their headquarters and we bought it specifically for this room.

  • D had a fight with the concierge at the Ritz Hotel in paris to get these done.

  • True, I forgot about that.

  • That was that was incredible.

  • It was incredible.

  • Where are we going now?

  • Where we going?

  • Are we going upstairs?

  • Let's go upstairs.

  • Yeah, if you guys follow us this way, this is the master suite which we have to clean, which cut here is our master bedroom.

  • I love it because it's so airy and light, it's cozy but it's elegant.

  • This is one of the features that I love that.

  • I think everybody must have our own mini bar.

  • We have our own little minibar coffee station.

  • When you wake up, you don't have to go down to the kitchen.

  • Another favorite part of the apartment is the terrace overlooking the park.

  • Once you get your coffee over there, you can just move over here and have our coffee overlooking Central Park on our terrace.

  • Here is the master bath, his and her sinks.

  • Very important.

  • No fighting.

  • And we then have the dressing area and this is my little glam station over here.

  • I decided to set up my own boutique.

  • I have basically uniform taste white shirts, blue shirts, navy suits, gray suits, black tuxedos, chinos, jeans and navy and gray sweaters.

  • So it's perfect for my uniform.

  • Yours is definitely bigger.

  • No, no, no, no, no mine has nothing in it.

  • I know maybe we should convert into something because it's not being a closet.

  • Mhm.

  • This is Sebastian.

  • This is his room.

  • This is my favorite piece in his room.

  • It's actually two giant drums that have been cut out to make bookshelves.

  • And I thought it was just such a clever piece.

  • And so much fun.

  • This room is more signature Tommy Hilfiger than any room in the house because it is red, white and blue.

  • Sebastian loves this room and he loves sleeping in his boat bed.

  • The idea was to make it very nautical.

  • This room is a guest room slash child's room, depending on who's visiting at the time.

  • Call it the swing room.

  • Not to be confused with the swingers room.

  • Walls are adorned with my favorite rock and roll photographs from Janis, Joplin tina turner.

  • The Beatles paul McCartney, the who?

  • The stones.

  • And then if we go through here, this is sort of another whole wing that we did for Tommy's teenage daughter Elizabeth.

  • Yeah, this is the lilac or purple room.

  • My daughter Elizabeth chose to decorate the room.

  • This way she was going to school here at the time.

  • Now she's living in L.

  • A.

  • Designing her own collection.

  • The painting above the doorway is a painting done by Tommy's daughter Ali that I actually bought at her first art show.

  • I actually love that painting.

  • Mm hmm.

  • Those elephant tusks are fake.

  • We do not harm animals in the making of this apartment.

  • We'd like everybody to know.

  • This is the dome in the building.

  • So we have the natural bracing and the authentic original bricks.

  • The chandelier is from the new york Times lobby When it was on 43rd Street.

  • The mural on the wall is painted by Hilary Knight, the illustrator for the Eloise book.

  • That is me and that is Tommy.

  • It looks like we're getting out of some kind of canoe or gondola.

  • This is for coffee, tea and desserts.

  • Occasionally we use it as a room for pizza.

  • It's a pizza tea room here you have to pick up your cup, cup and no, you have to have it.

  • Your pinky ding, ding.

  • The pinkie up is the proper.

  • That's right.

  • Let's see a little more angle.

  • There you go.

  • Good.

  • And then sip.

  • Perfect.

  • Thank you for coming.

  • Thanks for coming by.
