Veronica Leoni Re-tunes the House to a Lower, Richer Frequency
Most comeback stories open with fanfare. Calvin Klein did the opposite. In the brand’s own West 39th Street headquarters, no cavernous warehouse, no LED theatrics, creative director Veronica Leoni offered a runway that felt like an exhale after a long hold. Her message was clear: minimalism can be monumental without raising its voice.
Leoni’s silhouettes told the story first. Three families of cut, knife-lean tailoring, cropped ease, and cocooned drape were engineered with hollowed interiors, giving volume without weight. The workmanship is stealth: you don’t notice the construction until you try to imagine how it hangs so lightly.
