Veronica Leoni to Exit Calvin Klein
The Italian designer is leaving her post at Calvin Klein Collection after four seasons. A new creative director will be named “in due course.”
Calvin Klein has announced that Veronica Leoni will be leaving the brand after four seasons as its creative director. Leoni, who has worked for brands like The Row and Celine, was responsible for reviving Calvin Klein’s runway line, dubbed Collection, in 2024. David Savman, global brand president at Calvin Klein, praised Leoni's vision and fresh perspective, stating that her contributions helped build significant momentum for the collection.
Leoni played a crucial role in building cultural moments and sparking conversation around the brand's runway shows. While the brand's return of the high-end collection has had mixed reviews and a slight decline in quarterly sales, Leoni's departure does not signal the end of Collection as part of Calvin Klein's long-term strategy. A new creative director will be appointed "in due course."
