Veronica Leoni’s sophomore Calvin Klein Spring 2026 RTW collection on the idea of clothes for life, translating meaningful simplification into magnified normality.

“Calvin Klein has always been a brand that belongs to the people and presents a true lifestyle offering rooted in minimalism, modernity and an American sensibility,” said Veronica Leoni, Creative Director of collection. “With my second Collection I wanted to express this feeling of Calvin Klein as a way of being rather than a way of appearing, capturing its state of mind with a bold and unadorned ardor. The tension between a deep sense of intimacy and the taste for exposure finds its solution through craft and artisanship.”

The collection presents an urban wardrobe where spontaneity, contradiction and expressiveness come forward. Underwear becomes a protagonist, its influence appearing in variations on the camisole and slip, lace accents and eyeglass straps, then exploding into a seamless tweed dress woven with the brand’s iconic logo waistbands. In apparel, silhouettes range from tall and slender to cropped and revealing to loose and layered, with precise tailoring, flowing drapery and fringe detailing coming into focus. Tailored wools, washed and waxed technical fabric, liquid jerseys and silks are offered in an urban neutral palette of white, black and grey, with notes of pink, scarlet, light blue and fern. Fabrics, especially leathers, take on new tactile textures – laser-cut to look like terrycloth; assembled in intarsia; hand-cut and crocheted into fringe dresses.

The intimate show took place at the Brant Foundation in New York’s East Village with Jung Kook, Rosalía, Lily Collins, Jalen Green, Disha Patani, Britt Lower, Tu Tontawan, Sabrina Elba, Chris Briney and more in attendance.
