Officially Raf Simons is declared the creative director of Calvin Klein. Today the new era of the American brand has begun.
“Wow” – the effect of news has not turned out for the reason that this appointment is discussed in each fashionable edition already at least half a year. Thanks to the Internet any in the slightest degree the interesting hearing, just born, flies about the earth within a day. And here the hearing has been supported with regalia of sources. Doubts were not, but also official announcements from the employer were not too. Perhaps any conditions about the competition in Simons’s contract with Dior which is terminated in October, 2015 did not allow the designer to start new responsibilities.
“The arrival of Raf Simons as chief creative officer signifies a momentous new chapter for Calvin Klein,” — Steve Shiffman, CEO of Calvin Klein, Inc. said to BoF — “Not since Mr. Klein himself was at the company has it been led by one creative visionary, and I am confident that this decision will drive the Calvin Klein brand and have a significant impact on its future. Raf’s exceptional contributions have shaped and modernized fashion as we see it today and, under his direction, Calvin Klein will further solidify its position as a leading global lifestyle brand.” And it is officially!
