Video Directed and Shot By Alasdair McLellan NEW YORK, June 30 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- Calvin Klein, Inc. today announced that Chief Creative Officer
Raf Simons collaborated with
The xx and photographer and filmmaker
Alasdair McLellan on the creative concept and direction for the music video for the band’s latest song “I Dare You.”
Simons has had a longstanding appreciation of The xx – Jamie Smith, Romy Madley Croft and Oliver Sim – and was drawn to the band’s work with McLellan on the music videos for “On Hold” and “Say Something Loving.” Seeing a connection between the videos and his own work at
CALVIN KLEIN, Simons was pleased to collaborate on the third video of the trilogy, lending his eye to the architectural and atmospheric elements and utilizing an eclectic cast of
CALVIN KLEIN collaborators.
The music video, which was filmed in Los Angeles at Lloyd Wright’s Sowden house and John Lautner’s Rainbow House, opens with actress
Millie Bobby Brown, who currently appears in the
Calvin Klein By Appointmentcampaign, and also features
Ashton Sanders, currently featured in the men’s Spring 2017
Calvin Klein Underwear advertising campaign;
Paris Jackson, who attended this year’s Costume Institute Benefit as a guest of the brand; and models
Lulu and
Ernesto Cervantes, who each appear in advertising campaigns for the brand as well as the Fall 2017
