Abby Champion is used to running circles around a runway.
But that doesn’t mean she’s not still pinching herself when she steps up to New York Fashion Week every year—especially when it comes to representing Tommy Hilfiger.
“I had the most all-American way of growing up and I feel like being a part of this takes me back to that,” she shared exclusively on Live From E! Stream: Tommy Hilfiger Spring 2027 Runway Show Sept 10. “It just brings me back to my younger self when I was in high school wearing Tommy Hilfiger. I’m like, ‘This is a full-circle moment.’”
As for the intense prep the 29-year-old—who married Patrick Schwarzenegger last September—usually undergoes for the runway, this show at the iconic Plaza Hotel in New York City has been among the more relaxed she’s ever done.
“It’s been very chill this morning,” she revealed. “I got here very early, enough time for hair and makeup. Seeing lots of familiar faces, and we’re just kind of having a very chill lead up until the show, it’s been great.”
