the Piece

A majority of the models from FW18 walked down the runway wearing multicolor knitted balaclavas. A trend that spread all over the fashion world with brands like Gucci & others sending there models down the runway wearing the flashy headwear.
Raf´s take is by far the most popular with an insane amount of celebrities (Asap Rocky, Offset, Meek Mill just to name a few) wearing the piece.
The balaclava is made out of the finest Italian wool for the highest level of comfort and can also be rolled up to be worn as a beanie.

the Collection

After a year of Raf Simon’s debut at Calvin Klein, he presented one of our favorite fashion shows of the last decade, 205W39NYC Fall Winter 2018. From the extraordinary runway that had a floor filled with real Popcorn to some of the most thought-out knitwear he ever designed, everything about it made this collection a huge evolution of Raf and his idea of Calvin Klein.  

"This collection is an evolution of my idea of Calvin Klein – of a view onto American society – but now wider, universal. It’s an allegory for a meeting of old worlds and new worlds, relating to the discovery of America, the 1960’s Space Race, and the twenty-first century information age. Reflecting the notion of democracy, there is no cultural hierarchy: the mixes emancipate clothing and references from their meanings, from their own narratives, and collage them to discover something different – a different dream. More than anything else, this collection is about freedom. A word that defines America, and Calvin Klein” – Raf
