The Threesome Behind Calvin Klein–As Francisco Costa, Italo Zucchelli and Kevin Carrigan celebrate their tenth year anniversary as creative directors at Calvin Klein, WSJ. magazines brings the talented trio together to reflect on their successes. After the departure of Calvin Klein from his namesake, the creative duties were wisely spread out with Costa heading womenswear for Calvin Klein Collection, Zucchelli at the helm of men’s for Calvin Klein Collection and Carrigan for the American fashion house’s more accessible lines. For Zucchelli, who brought a sense of texture and playfulness to the house DNA of sportswear, the designer shares, “For me, it’s very easy to work within this kind of aesthetic. It’s like my second skin.” Visit WSJ.com to read the feature.
