Calvin Klein has debuted a new campaign in collaboration with Hypebeast revolving around the brand’s iconic Monogram logo. The feature film depicts four artists from Europe and takes viewers through an immersive experience dedicated to exploring each artist’s creative journey as they reimagine the classic logo. The four designers are given the duty of adding their distinctive flair to each side of a cubic canvas as they come together at a warehouse in the UK.
The list of artists includes Ethiopia-born Rediet Longo (also known as RED), South American artist Rafaella Braga, Parisian graphic designer Maïte Marque, and British painter Alfie Kungu. Interested consumers can view the visual campaign for the Calvin Klein series online and shop the CK Monogram collection on the brand’s website.
