The latest Calvin Klein campaign for spring-summer 2024 is a striking homage to modern city life, where actor Idris Elba effortlessly embodies the essence of the metropolis. Captured by the lens of Mert Alas, the advertisement traverses the gray-scale streets, mirroring the timeless elegance of the brand’s redefined menswear.

Each frame of Elba, set against the urban backdrop, showcases the must-haves of the season, underscoring the notion of stealth pieces essential for city life.

In a display of tailored minimalism, Calvin Klein’s collection highlights the versatility of work-to-after-hours transition. A classic trench coat, reimagined in a slim-fit silhouette, captures the campaign’s spirit, as does the slim-fit wool suit that’s as sleek as it is functional.
