The “Calvin Klein Jeans x mytheresa.com The Re-Issue Project” features modernized, limited edition versions of nine of the legendary brand’s most iconic pieces. Designed by Calvin Klein Jeans’ Global Creative Director, Kevin Carrigan, the archival styles have been updated with today’s advanced fabrications and technology, and will be offered in multiple colors.
“This Calvin Klein Jeans capsule is all about a nostalgia for the 90s and that whole look feeling very right again,” said Mr. Carrigan. “It now feels like the perfect time to re-issue the brand’s iconic hits to a new generation.”
To support the exclusive capsule and capture its retrospective, yet modern feel, Lottie Moss – model and sister of longtime Calvin Klein muse Kate Moss – was photographed by Michael Avedon, wearing key pieces from the line. Enhancing the full-circle nature of the project, Mr. Avedon is the grandson of renowned photographer Richard Avedon, who shot the groundbreaking 1981 Calvin Klein Jeans campaign featuring Brooke Shields uttering the famous tagline, “You want to know what comes between me and my Calvins? Nothing.”
Included in “Calvin Klein Jeans x mytheresa.com The Re-Issue Project” are versions of the original high-waisted skinny jeans popularized by Ms. Shieldsin the 80s and the classic, boyfriend tapered jeans worn by Ms. Moss in the 90s, as well as the brand’s popular “cK” sweatshirts and t shirts. Essential Calvin Klein Jeans denim jackets and shirts in washes ranging from pale ice to stone grey complete the timeless offering.
