Calvin Klein ends partnership with designer Veronica Leoni after two years
Calvin Klein announced it is parting ways with creative director Veronica Leoni following a two-year collaboration to revive its high-end runway line.
Leoni joins the brand in 2024
Veronica Leoni began her role at Calvin Klein in 2024 after previously founding her own label, Quira. She had paused her independent work to lead the American fashion house and divide her time between New York and Rome. Her appointment marked a return for the brand to its signature minimalist aesthetic.
Previous roles at major houses
Before joining Calvin Klein, Leoni served as head of knitwear at Jil Sander and worked at Céline under Phoebe Philo. She also designed a capsule collection for Moncler and contributed to the Row brand before starting her own label in 2021.
Partnership concludes after revival efforts
Leoni was brought on specifically to revive Collection, which had been suspended since 2019. Her first efforts for the line embraced minimalist tailoring and oversized proportions before the partnership ended.
