Tommy Hilfiger's daughter didn't need his help with her fashion line.

The legendary designer is thrilled with his offspring Ally's new line NAHM - which she worked on with design partner Nary Manivong - and says it looked better than it had in previews when the collection was presented at New York Fashion Week this week.

He said: "I love it. I saw some of the samples, but now seeing them on the models, they look great.

"[Did I help?]I put my three cents in and they give me a couple of pennies back. They know exactly what they're doing. They have a very specific point of view."

Ally said the collection was inspired by vintage prints and "strong, powerful women".

She added to People "We're growing our customer up a bit, but she's also this very effortless, intellectual woman."

The designer sourced some of the floral and Egyptian-influenced fabrics from her own vintage collection.

She said: "They're recoloured and resized."
