One of the hottest events of the NYFW F/W 25 season is undoubtedly the return of Calvin Klein Collection to the runway. The iconic fashion house has just staged its first show since the S/S 19 series and is with the new creative director: Veronica Leoni. The NYFW program has been dominated by smaller brands in recent years, so the excitement is evident when something as important as the Calvin Klein Collection Repack comes up.
Numerous celebrities and super celebrities (more on this later) attended the conference, and even Kendall Jenner (who rarely walked on the NYFW runway), was part of the model lineup, wearing a wide long tail coat and Patent leather flat shoes. Leoni’s debut series has been highly reviewed, so we hope the Calvin Klein series will be an NYFW fixture again. Leoni’s debut series has been highly reviewed, so we hope the Calvin Klein series will be an NYFW fixture again. Read on for more details on everything, from trends along the runway to familiar faces in the front row.
New designer
Veronica Leoni, the brand’s first female creative director, has lent her design skills over the years and Jil Sander (to name only a few). Leoni’s design remains true to Calvin Klein’s signature minimalism, but with a soft, soft touch. Apparently, her goal is to be true to the brand’s aesthetics while giving herself a personal touch and perspective. Calvin Klein herself even attended the presence that supported the brand, which showed that she had his approval.

Calvin Klein’s soft side
Overall, Calvin Klein is not always considered “soft” or “pretty”, but this season, there has been a clear shift toward this aesthetic. Satin, pastel and off-shoulder contours are just some of the romantic styles that merge with the brand’s iconic minimalism.

Expert coat
Given that this is the F/W 25 season, there are many coats expected, and Leoni nails it. She sent out sharp long skirts, dramatic shawls, sharp blazers and oversized ditches, all of which surely would cause the waitlist madness until they were on the market.

Flat shoes trend
If you are a flat shoe, there is some good news as most models walk down the track in stylish flat shoes. In the order below you will see slipper mugs, Oxford, chunky mocha, and satin and white leather ballet flats with rotating toes. Calvin Klein isn’t always famous for his shoes, but it seems that’s going to change.
