Zooey Deschanel had the support of plenty of her famous friends at the launch of her collaboration with Tommy Hilfiger at The London Hotel in West Hollywood, California, on Wednesday. Even though the fashion was a sea of reds, blues, and whites, it was still pretty easy to tell who was dressed in the collection and who was not.
All we had to look for was the touch of Zooey’s signature retro-vintage style. Zooey, of course, had it, along with Hannah Simone in a mod shift dress with buttoned shoulders and Kaitlyn Dever in a geo-print shirtdress.

Many of the attendees chose to wear the floral-print dresses from Tommy Hilfiger’s own Spring 2014 collection, while others chose pieces from earlier collections. Yet, no matter the season, the red-blue-and-white color theme was still dominant.

Their choice of shoes is where it gets interesting. Colors weren’t limited to Americana anymore, and the styles went beyond the vintage-prep dress code. The shoes below are the ones we’ve identified as Tommy Hilfiger’s. We’re loving the color-block wingtip platforms on Hannah Simone the most. The neon-strap sandals on Kimberly Brook need to make their way into our summer shoe closets!

Some, including Malin Akerman, Zoey Deutch, and Ally Hilfiger, wore other labels. Although they’re not by Tommy Hilfiger, cute shoes are always welcome.

There’s always bound to be one oddball at any fashion event, and at this collaboration collection launch, it was British singer Neon Hitch. Coming out of left field in a floral headwrap, a bra-revealing knotted shirt, rose-embroidered hot pants, and star heel-less shoes, Neon completely broke the event’s retro-preppy dress code.
