The friends turned design partners had been pursuing their own individual fashion forays before coming together last year to launch their contemporary line, NAHM, named for a mix-up of their initials.

TIME FOR A SECOND ACT: After a four-year hiatus, Nary Manivong is back on the scene with a direct-to-consumer signature collection.

Manivong, a Laotian-American now based in Manhattan, was working on an eponymous fashion brand when he met Hilfiger, who was trying her hand at styling at the time. Coming together to launch NAHM for fall , they fused their combined international experiences into one city-savvy line: think a burnt orange shirtdress with asymmetrical hem or black maxi dress with a shorter underskirt and long, sheer overlay.

With their line already stocked in top shops NYC, Dubai and London, the duo talks with The Inside Source about their sophomore collection for spring , how they came together and what clothing pieces they're looking to stock up on this winter. Nary Manivong: We have been in market for the last few weeks [selling our spring collection to retailers].

It's been a very exciting season for us. Nary Manivong: We met at a dinner party Ally was throwing in through a mutual friend. We definitely hit it off.

The new film “Dressed,” starring Nary Manivong, is a cautionary tale of just how disillusioning the path to becoming a designer can be.

Ally Hilfiger: At the time Nary was working on his fashion show and invited me. I came and supported him there and on the other few shows he did. He later hired me to work as a stylist for his collection for two seasons. The Inside Source: Let's chat about your recent spring collection. What was the inspiration behind the line? Nary Manivong: Our spring collection was really about all the Parisians going to Laos in the s.

We used some Laotian traditional prints and a vintage scarf print we found.
