A Clueless Calvin Klein

Calvin Klein has decided to recreate the infamous white dress that Cher (Alicia Silverstone) wore in “Clueless.” The idea came about during a meeting between Calvin Klein’s creative director, Francisco Costa, and Ilaria Urbinati, co-owner of the LA-based label Confederacy.

“I went into a spazzy explanation of how my formative-years love of Calvin was partly based on the little white Calvin mini dress Alicia Silverstone wears in Clueless, I re-enacted the entire scene for him (you know, ‘Cher, what are you wearing?’ ‘A dress!’ ‘Says who?’ ‘Calvin Klein!’ ‘Well, go put something over it!’ ‘Duh, I was just going to!’ and then she comes out with the clear trench). So of course I said, Francisco, you need to remake that dress.” said Urbinati.

The dress will be sold at Confederacy stores as well as online at http://www.shopconfederacy.com/shop/.

According to WWD, Lara Stone has hopped on board to be the new face of Calvin Klein and Calvin Klein Jeans, which means no more Eva Mendes. Stone is taking the fashion world by storm and holding the “It” model status for the moment.

“No, we haven’t made any talent announcements for fall campaigns yet and we don’t comment on rumor. We will likely be announcing several campaigns in the next few weeks.” said a spokeswoman for Calvin Klein. But she definitely did not deny the rumor either.

We wonder if Stone will live up to the sexy ads that Mendes was able to pull off with her womanly curves!
