New York Fashion Week Runway: Calvin Klein Stays Straightforward And Simple
Posted in: UncategorizedWithout a doubt, the Calvin Klein label is well-known for its minimalism. So when I saw the first couple of looks in Calvin Klein’s menswear collection for Fall 2009, I wasn’t that impressed. Sure, I love these streamlined, no-frill suits, but I wasn’t at the edge of my seat. In fact, I was nodding off. Right when I was about to let out a yawn from my drooling sleep, a handsome blue suit made an appearance on the runway. This caught my attention. The suit itself is signature Calvin Klein, but the color made it interesting and tickled my inner Don Draper. From there, the show started to hit its stride. Sporty space-age jackets and pristine lines on pants, shirts and coats weren’t groundbreaking, but they were clean and refreshing. The shimmery garments (which included a suit and a couple of tops) added a small wave of change in the sea of simplicity. The basic hue of the collection was like eating a palate-cleansing sorbet. It was refreshing, unsoiled and straightforward. At first, I may have been ready to take a cat nap, but as the collection unfolded, I started to pay attention – and there’s nothing wrong with going the simple route every once in a while.
