Considering that we’re still in the throes of summer, it may feel a touch surreal to be thinking about fall style already. Thankfully, we have the perfect excuse to dream about cozy knits and sexy long-sleeve dresses: Calvin Klein’s fall 2023 campaign, starring none other than Kendall Jenner and debuting exclusively on ELLE.com. The supermodel-entrepreneur-expert cucumber-cutter has been working with the legendary American brand for over a decade now, fronting both signature CK Underwear ads and sporting its signature wares. Next season sees Jenner in vampy makeup with blown-out hair, embracing a classic ’90s supermodel look that wonderfully contrasts her more pared-back appearances, both in front of the camera and in candid street style photos.

Viewers (and, at this rate, probably non-viewers too) of Succession know that the billionaires on the show are all about understated luxury—”stealth wealth,” if you will. No branding. No logos. Insanely expensive, nonetheless. I’m talking cashmere baseball caps that are a few hundred dollars, suede moccasins that I’d be afraid to step outside in.

There’s a certain lowkey flex to the ultra-wealthy not needing to slap flashy prints and designs and monograms on their staple pieces: they may look like basics, but everyone knows they’re not spending less than a few hundred on a single garment. Those who do enter the circle of the Roys with flashy designer branding are ridiculed for their tastes, ostentatious and tacky in the face of such understated luxury—RIP, Ludicrously Capacious Bag
