In a noteworthy Fashion Week collaboration, Calvin Klein and designer Nensi Dojaka have teamed up to create a collection that bridges the gap between underwear and ready-to-wear, drawing from a shared inspiration: the power of female sensuality.
The Nensi Dojaka for Calvin Klein collection blends the London-based womenswear designer’s intricate, sensual style with Calvin Klein’s signature innovation and design ethos. Centered around women's underwear, the collection explores the balance between strength and softness, celebrating both equally. This collaboration feels natural, given Nensi Dojaka’s signature underwear-as-outerwear aesthetic and Calvin Klein’s longstanding reputation as a powerhouse in the intimates world.
Unveiled on Nensi Dojaka’s Spring/Summer 2025 runway, the pieces are already available for purchase. The collection emphasises specific areas of the body, drawing attention to the collarbone, hips, and back. Fine harness straps frame the chest, while sheer layers highlight rather than conceal. Sculptural metal hardware, inspired by Calvin Klein’s archives, serves as a striking focal point, blending rigidity and organic forms to celebrate duality.
Purpose and wear ability are keys to the collection, with multi-layered petal cups designed to enhance subtly and featherweight knits that provide discreet support. Calvin Klein’s advanced technical engineering ensures functional support throughout. Languid slip dresses, accented with sculptural hardware, are paired with ‘gently oversized’ tailoring, balancing the delicacy of the other pieces.
As with many current collections, this collection too is influenced by the 90s. It is updated with meticulous attention to detail. The collection is accompanied by a campaign featuring actor Rebecca Ferguson and models Jill Kortleve and Mona Tougaard, photographed by Harley Weir against a London backdrop, in images described as ‘powerfully feminine and boldly sensual.; Nensi Dojaka describes the collection as an exploration of femininity,’ saying, it reframes the image of a women, showing both vulnerability and strength.
Praising the designer Eva Serrano, Global Brand President, states, Dojoka’s vision and talent are on the next level. The collaboration is currently available at select Calvin Klein stores, key retail partners, and online through both brands’ webstores.
