"Levi's, the brand synonymous with denim heritage, continues to explore new creative territory through its ongoing collaboration with Kiko Kostadinov. After making its debut during Paris Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2025, the partnership returns this fall with a sophomore capsule collection that pushes denim into conceptual and artistic terrain. Designed by sisters Laura and Deanna Fanning under the Kiko Kostadinov studio, the range reimagines Levi's classics through the lens of vintage postal stamps, transforming workwear staples into wearable reflections of communication and memory."
"Unlike many fashion collaborations that rely on surface-level design tweaks, this collection draws its narrative from an unexpected yet evocative source: the world of postal stamps. Each garment incorporates artwork inspired by global, vintage stamps, echoing the beauty of a bygone medium that once carried personal messages across continents. The Fanning sisters described the project as an exploration of "how transit, both physical and emotional, leaves an imprint," likening denim itself to a kind of canvas that records history."
Levi's and Kiko Kostadinov return with a fall capsule that transforms classic workwear into concept-driven pieces inspired by vintage postal stamps. Sisters Laura and Deanna Fanning designed stamp-printed and light indigo variations that integrate stamp artwork, motifs, and personal imagery. Key items include the Carina Waisted Jacket in Postal Stamp Print and Light Indigo Wash, the Carina Flared Jean in matching iterations, and the Carina Apron Shorts in indigo. Construction emphasizes non-stretch denim, tailored details such as back elbow darts, stainless steel hardware, snap closures, and a coordinating belt to sharpen silhouettes.
