Kiko Kostadinov's Cozy Levi's Collaboration Is Here
With diamond-darted engineered jackets, asymmetrical jersey tops and more.
Kiko Kostadinov and Levi’s long-awaited collaboration is finally here.
Fans of the eponymous Bulgarian-bred London label first took note of the team-up in December of last year, when the brand shared an image of a collaborative denim tag to its Instagram Stories. Then, on the brand’s menswear runway in January and womenswear catwalk in March, Kostadinov revealed the inaugural pieces from the partnership — black denim jackets cut with punctured pearls and warm, textural jeans, among them — for Fall/Winter 2024. Now, the leading denim brand and the namesake designer label have pulled back the curtain on their full lineup of men’s and women’s silhouettes.
On the men’s front, Kostadinov reenvisions Levi’s classic Engineered Jeans and Jacket with new knee and elbow darting that incorporates Bulgaria-inspired diamond inserts across panels and eyelets. A hybrid jersey style, meanwhile, features an asymmetrical opening, side patch pockets and all-over top-stitching in a union of signature sportswear tropes and Western codes.
Kostadinov’s womenswear designers, Laura and Deanna Fanning, were inspired by the concept of a three-piece denim suit. The results include jersey Henley silhouettes and coats with fuzzy textural finishes, as well as relaxed-fit jeans and jackets with ballooning sleeves and cinched, darted waists.
The Levi’s x Kiko Kostadinov collection will launch on August 22 in select Levi’s stores, at Kiko Kostadinov Tokyo and on both brands’ webstores. Take a look at the the line in the campaign above.
