Market Appointments: Calvin Klein

At this morning’s Calvin Klein open house male and female models lounged on a pyramid of stairs clad in the fall CK line of velvet dresses, charcoal grey jackets, and the like.

The live model presentation always poses an interesting quandary to editors, buyers, and one would assume models alike: How does one take in the new designs without staring down the lithe young things that wear them? Engage or not engage with the models? How must it feel to have the well-shod sussing you out without the relief of the friendly runway barrier? And what about those sporting the latest under garments: Does one eye the goods (I’m talking about clothes here, so get your mind out of the gutter) or politely look away?

I opted for the latter, and trotted off to the wardrobe racks where there were more than a few white knit dresses (sure to be featured in magazines’ December/January “Winter White” trend stories) and luxe accessories positioned in picture-perfect displays.
