New York – September 10, 2021 – WildBrain’s Teletubbies kicked off their Fall 2021 world tour in the Big Apple! Ahead of the iconic children’s brand’s 25th anniversary in 2022, the Teletubbies have launched a full-scale campaign that celebrates their unique and historic connection with big hugs to fashion, art and music, bringing joy and a sense of nostalgia to Gen Z – the original Teletubbies fans – and the rest of the world alike.

During New York’s Fashion Week, Tinky Winky, the tallest and most fashionable Teletubby (he’s the purple one with the red handbag!), partnered with some of the industry’s brightest and most creative designers and tastemakers, including Christian Cowan and VFILES. As the fashion world made its most anticipated return to in-person events since February 2020’s shows, Tinky Winky was an exciting and welcoming addition to the long-awaited fashion season.
