Label Text:Francisco Costa has described his ideal client as “the kind of woman who wants to be on top . . . she’s sexy and she’s getting sexier . . .” Yet rather than focus on explicit sexuality, his designs for Calvin Klein are sensual and sophisticated. The jersey fabric of this sheath clings gently to the curves of the body.
