NEW YORK FASHION WEEK 25

​

The first clue to newly minted Calvin Klein creative director Veronica Leoni’s direction for her debut show? The brand’s original font has returned, embossed on invites and bookending the show notes. The spidery sans serif was a hint that we might be in for an exercise in ’90s minimalism, updated for a nostalgic generation that might not have been there for the first go-round.

That dynamic was also clear in the front row, where new-gen stars like Greta Lee, Eve Hewson, Bad Bunny, and Simone Ashley mingled with OG Calvin muses Kate Moss and Christy Turlington Burns and even the brand founder himself. The fall 2025 show marked not just Leoni’s freshman outing, but the return of Calvin Klein Collection, which has been dormant since 2018. In a post-show interview, Leoni poetically compared it to “a Sleeping Beauty that just wanted to have a kiss.”
