    Written by Fashion Tales

    The Fall 2019 CALVIN KLEIN UNDERWEAR campaign, #MYCALVINS IRL – In Real Life- celebrates two totally different perspectives of what sexy looks like. The result blurs the line between the public image and private realities of our unapologetic cast and asks the question, how do you do sexy? Perfectly filtered or IRL raw?


    The campaign features a cast of bold personalities whose vulnerability and confidence expose a new, spirited idea of sexy. Supermodel Naomi Campbell, DJ and producer Diplo, actor Jacob Elordi, NFL star Odell Beckham, Jr., model Matthew Noszka and musicians Beth Ditto and Lay Zhang star in their first CALVIN KLEIN campaign alongside actress Jelly Lin, supermodel Bella Hadid and model Cara Taylor. Each comfortable in their own skin and each confident in their CALVINS.


    The #MYCALVINS IRL campaign brings a unique point of view on sexy by capturing both the posed and stripped- back sides. In a series of high-energy videos by Bardia Zeinali and expressive still images by Daniel Jackson, the campaign brings to life the playful and pure perspective of sexy; one that encourages self-expression and underscores the idea that sexy is a state of mind.


    The Fall 2019 campaign highlights the brand’s new underwear offerings including: Neon, 1981 Bold, across both men’s and women’s categories, and Liquid Touch, in the women’s tailored bra category. A continuation of the #MYCALVINS movement, the campaign will embrace a video first approach and will be supported by digital, social, and high-impact outdoor locations.

    J.Lindeberg SS20 collection

    Written by Meghan Scott

    J.Lindeberg presents Spring / Summer 2020 in London - Chapter ⅘ in ‘future.archive’ : ‘sub.culture’.

    ” ‘Future.archive’ is an overall concept introduced by Jens Werner when he took over as Creative Director for J.Lindeberg. It's a journey that spans five seasons and portrays the brand's journey into the future where sport and fashion united in the meeting between tradition and tech, classic and innovation. J.Lindeberg introduced the collection during an event in its new showroom in London on June 27th.”

    “SS20 tells a story about how some cultural movements replace others and how something groundbreaking becomes mainstream, in order to be passed to passé in the next step and then return as “cool” in new subcultures. How cultures within a culture develop and transform into something new. The Mod movement is an interesting representation of just that - how the attitude and the self-confidence of a few individuals have been able to characterize style and clothing codes for decades, ” says Jens Werner.

    Werner has taken the brand into a new future, taking iconic pieces and redefining them with tech fabrics and bulky silhouettes. Key looks include oversized fishtail mod parkas, carcoats, and long bomber jackets. Thick wool knits still prevail but in a coolmax blend. These fashion chapters weave in the golf and ski aspect of J.Lindeberg and sub-cultures, with a strong sense of longevity.
