She sports several looks intended to reflect the brand's day-to-night dressing, including the Tech textured vest and blazer, a viscose ribbed maxidress, crepe printed slipdress, matte satin midi skirt and jacquard stripe popover shirt.
Collins also wears pieces from the more-sporty Calvin Klein Studio collection including the '90s trucker jacket and '90s straight jean, both made from Cone Denim.
The campaign, which was directed and shot by Charlotte Wales, launches on Tuesday with content rolling out across the Calvin Klein social channels throughout the week. The images will also appear on digital media platforms and high impact out-of-home sites globally.
Calvin Klein returned to the runway in New York during Fashion Week last month after a six-and-a-half-year hiatus. The runway show served as an introduction to the brand's new designer, Veronica Leoni, whose first collection will debut at retail this fall.
Before that, the last show for Calvin Klein, which is owned by PVH Corp., was in September 2018 when Raf Simons was creative director.
Leoni was named creative director of Calvin Klein Collection last May. A 2023 LVMH Prize finalist and founder of Quira, Leoni also worked for such brands as Jil Sander, Celine, Moncler and, most recently, The Row, where she was womenswear and menswear design director.

Luxury Retail Still Prevails on Mount Street

LONDON — In Mayfair, retail is bucking the luxury slowdown. Grosvenor, which owns prime retail property across London, is strategizing to keep the momentum going this summer with the Mount Street Neighbourhood Summer Festival as it celebrates the neighborhood's fashion, food and art offerings. More from WWD Franz Kraler to Open Luxury Ski-slope Chalet in Cortina d'Ampezzo Five Modes Boutiques Reopen Under New Italian Company Jewelry Brand Vickisarge Gets the Val Garland Makeover The crown jewels of the Mount Street Neighbourhood include diamond jeweler Jessica McCormack, the luxury hotel The Connaught, fashion designer Huishan Zhang, the Prada-owned patisserie Marchesi and the restaurant Hideaway. There's also openings taking place this summer from chocolatier Barnaby, perfume brand Fueguia 1833 and celebrity facialist and aesthetician Melanie Grant. 'After COVID-19, Mount Street came out of the block so strongly mainly because we'd cemented it as a neighborhood and we've made the strategic decision to really widen that tenant mix that's less dominated by fashion,' said Joanna Lea, Mayfair retail portfolio director at Grosvenor. Grosvenor has brought a set of consultants onboard to better understand the neighborhood's clientele, which makes up 5 to 10 percent of the world's global wealth. The Mount Street Neighborhood has been rebranding itself image-wise and on social media since October, around the same time that Frieze London kicked off. The neighborhood is being treated like a set of sails that reacts to the winds, in this case the cultural events taking place in and out of the city, from BST Hyde Park, Royal Ascot, the RCA Summer Exhibition to the Wimbledon Championships. The English pub the Audley Public House will be hosting 'A Week of Wimbledon' in July, serving up strawberries and cream with Pimm's and Wimbledon Martinis, but the beer on tap will stay put. 'When we think about programming Mount Street, we don't operate like a normal shopping neighborhood and think about Mother's Day or Easter, but instead it's about thinking about an international high-net-worth calendar,' said Lea, adding that they also take national holidays such as Saudi National Day and Fourth of July. American and Middle Eastern customers are the top spenders on Mount Street and it's a clientele that Grosvenor caters to carefully by vetting any newcomers into the neighborhood. 'No brand will come to the estate without us having met them. Ultimately, it's a people business and we want to do deals with great people because experience tells us that pays us dividends over the long term,' said Lea. Even though the luxury slowdown hasn't hit the Mount Street Neighborhood directly, luxury brands that are signing up for spaces in the neighborhood are taking a cautious approach by bidding on smaller units to test the waters before upgrading to larger spaces in the long run.

Tender Store Owner Cheryl Daskas Dies at 71

Funeral services were held in Troy, Mich., on Friday for Cheryl Daskas, a former model who ran the directional fashion boutique Tender. The cause of death for Daskas, who died on June 9, was not immediately known, according to the publicist Ellen Carey, who was a friend. Daskas had seemed 'fine' while working in the store on Saturday, aside from complaining of a leg issue, Carey said. She was found 'peacefully' at her home, following a wellness check by one of her employees, Carey said. More from WWD Groundbreaking Fashions Focus of Tokyo Exhibition Suite Talk: Frank Darling's Kegan Fisher on Making the Move From Tech to Art The History Behind the World's Most Expensive Tiaras: From Elizabeth Taylor's Mike Todd Headpiece to the $12.7 Million Henckel von Donnersmarck Tiara and More Born in Detroit, the 71-year-old spent her career in the fashion industry in different capacities. For the past 32 years, she owned and operated the store Tender in Birmingham, Mich., with her sister Karen. Tender is known for its European designer labels, which prior to the store's opening were not in abundance in the Midwest. The pair owned the downtown building that houses Tender, and they shared a home as well. Daskas earned a bachelor's degree at Michigan State University before getting into fashion. During her high school and college years, she modeled for the Ford Motor Company, Hudson's department store and other brands, before deciding 'that's not where she was going to make her money,' her sister said. 'She said it was like looking for a job every day of your life. Our mother was a model too. She was British and Scandinavian. They were both so pretty.' Tender once resided next door to a leading designer retailer Linda Dresner. After Dresner shuttered that store, Tender picked up Dries Van Noten. It also sells Erdem, Simone Rocha and Ashlyn, a 2025 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund finalist, for its 3,000-square-foot shop. Lanvin was once a strong seller there, during the Alber Elbaz years, Carey said. With pale blue walls, architectural displays and top-shelf names, Tender looks more like the type of a polished retailer one finds in Manhattan or Los Angeles. Ashlyn's managing director Johanne Shepley Siff met the sisters 30 years ago in her former role as senior vice president of sales and marketing at Prada. Siff said, 'We've lost one of the gems of the specialty store business. Cheryl was a force. I called her a 'textile archeologist.' She could immediately identify products of integrity.' Sift added, 'Tender is one of the opinion leaders, and one of the go-to retailers at the high-end specialty store. They not only take the risk to identify emerging talent, but they also have the structure and wherewithal to introduce that talent to a customer they have cultivated to appreciate new talent.' Accustomed to working six days a week, Cheryl Daskas would arrive at 8:30 am, if a customer requested that. The co-owners called their store employees 'Tender-ettes,' and they stayed connected with those past and present through the years, Karen Daskas said. 'Cheryl loved what she did. It was not about her or Tender. It was always about everybody else doing well,' Karen Daskas said. 'She had this gift, where she could look at someone and immediately know what size they were and what types of clothes would look good on them. And you didn't have to be a size four. You could be any size. She was just going to make you look great and feel the best that you can be.' With a larger-than-life personality, she was recognizable for her auburn cropped hair, broad smile and designer outfits. 'She was very tall and grand. When she came into a room, she stole the show,' Carey, who owns Seed Inc., said. Even in the early 1990s, the sisters understood the importance of retailers working closely with manufacturers to create items that would appeal to their customers. They took a highly personal approach to helping shoppers in the store and were also loyal supporters of the arts community through events and philanthropy in Birmingham, Carey said. Recalling how they collaborated on vintage jewelry shows at Tender on occasion, Carey said, 'Cheryl could sell like no one else could. Her heart was 100 percent in everything she did. Why do you want to do something if you're not going to do it well?' They would typically sell 150 of 200 items during a two-day sale. Kenneth Jay Lane items were of particular interest to shoppers and to Daskas, who would set aside five pairs of earrings for herself, Carey said. 'I would say, 'Cheryl, these are for the customers,' and she would say, 'Well, I'm a customer.'' But she wore them during the trunk show sales, and she was the showpiece, Carey said. 'And you're going to want them, if she's wearing them. Karen would not have done that. Karen would have sold them.' While Cheryl Daskas handled front-of-the house sales and the store's social media, Karen Daskas managed the buying trips. Off the clock, Cheryl Daskas enjoyed gardening, relaxing poolside, grilling and sharing meals and binge-watching shows with her sister. 'Every night we would tell eachother we loved eachother and give eachother a hug. We never fought except for a couple of sister squabbles,' Karen Daskas said. 'It's just a shock. We never got married and we didn't have kids. We have two little Kerry Terriers 'Whiskey' and 'Gogo.'' Daskas is survived by her sister.

Princess Eugenie Embraces Summertime Florals in Rebecca Vallance Dress at the ‘Thirty Six for Coral' Art Exhibition in France

Princess Eugenie traveled to Nice, France, for the 'Thirty Six for Coral' art exhibition on Thursday. The British royal family member attended the event and made remarks ahead of the exhibit supporting coral preservation and global sustainability. For the special occasion, Princess Eugenie opted for a design wholly evocative of the summertime season. The royal wore a sleeveless midi dress courtesy of Rebecca Vallance, featuring a bouquet of blue orchids cascading across the fabric.

Beauty Acquired the Brand for $1 Billion The Rebecca Vallance midi dress featured a playful blue orchid vine print design crafted from a premium linen blend. The dress' silhouette included a collared halter neckline with a structured lapel, and a fitted bodice with cinched waist for added definition. Adorning the waist was a rope belt. Rebecca Vallance's design also included a sleek, low-open back. Princess Eugenie completed her look with stain, open-toe mules courtesy of Staud. Princess Eugenie has long been an advocate for sustainability and global preservation. In April 2024, the British royal attended a fashion sustainability panel in London, wearing a design courtesy of Gabriela Hearst, a designer who's made sustainability a cornerstone of her eponymous label's mission. Rebecca Vallance is a brand that strives for sustainability, sharing a similar vocation with Hearst. The Australian fashion label endeavors to meet ethical sourcing standards as part of its practices, per the brand's sustainability statement. Given her stance on sustainable efforts and conservation, Princess Eugenie's style choices — which include wearing designs by Rebecca Vallance and Gabriela Hearst — reflect the British royal's dedication to global preservation, making her fashion part of a broader movement.
