As a "huge Tommy Hilfiger fan," according to her mother, Kendall, 28, was beyond happy to join the iconic brand for the new campaign — and she did so with five of her friends by her side. Kendall tapped musician and model Ebony Riley, model and singer Fai Khadra, actor and DJ Travis Bennett, model and designer Devon Lee Carlson and her high school friend Hannah Logan to star in the campaign with her.

"Working on Tommy's Spring 2024 campaign with my friends felt like a fun day out," Kendall shared in a press release. "These are the people who are always there for me, and I love that we were able to capture our special bond in the campaign images."
