Entrepreneur Dee Ocleppo Hilfiger joined forces with resortwear brand Lilly Pulitzer to unveil a dazzling limited-edition capsule collection that’s pure Palm Beach magic.
The capsule collection features two exclusive prints—Sunny Dee and Dee Lightful—each a vibrant celebration of Ocleppo Hilfiger and Lilly’s shared love for the whimsical charm and iconic motifs of their coastal hometown. Drawing on her personal connection to Palm Beach, Ocleppo Hilfiger selected the art that inspired each design, capturing what the town and Lilly Pulitzer mean to her—the color, the whimsy and the novelty.
Sunny Dee, available in two juicy colorways—Conch Shell Pink and Salt Pond Blue—is a playful ode to Palm Beach life, featuring cheeky alligators playing tennis, flirty flamingos, martinis and the iconic steps of the famed Palm Beach Vias. It’s resortwear with a wink.
Dee Lightful reimagines Lilly’s classic half-drop motif with a fresh twist: white-grounded scenes brought to life with engineered borders, grosgrain ribbon trims and the signature Lilly lace—a nod to preppy nostalgia with a modern edge.
The capsule includes nine radiant silhouettes: eight for women and one standout men’s piece—the Men’s Stuff Mizner Pant—each infused with Ocleppo Hilfiger’s signature sparkle and Lilly’s sun-soaked spirit.
As creative director of Judith Leiber Couture, Ocleppo Hilfiger also brings her couture touch with an exclusive limited-edition Judith Leiber Couture Fizzoni crystal-adorned classic clutch in Sunny Dee’s Conch Shell Pink. This collector’s piece pays homage to the origin stories of both brands—born from “happy accidents” and a need to hide a stain, now icons of joyful luxury.
“I grew up in Lilly dresses, and as a full-time Palm Beach resident, the brand’s influence on my style—and the town itself—is immeasurable. Designing this collection as a love letter to Palm Beach is a dream come true,” said Ocleppo Hilfiger.
“Collaborating with Dee was pure joy. Our shared love for Palm Beach and its whimsical icons made this the perfect tribute to resort style—juicy pastels, luxe silks and textured cotton shifts, a must-have collectable collection,” added Mira Fain, chief creative officer.
