Italian designer Veronica Leoni to revive Calvin Klein’s runway collection
Calvin Klein has appointed Italian designer Veronica Leoni as Creative Director for its high-end ready-to-wear collection, effective yesterday. Reporting to Global Brand President Eva Serrano, this move signals the brand’s return to the runway. Leoni, with experience at Jil Sander, Celine, Moncler, and The Row, founded her brand Quira and was a 2023 LVMH Prize finalist. Her first collection for Calvin Klein will debut in Fall 2025. This marks the first appointment since Raf Simons’ departure in 2018, which led to the closure of the high-end line. PVH Corp’s 2023 financial report shows a 3% annual revenue increase for Calvin Klein.
