The CK1Palace film, shot and directed by Alasdair McLellan, is a candid tale of two cities, highlighting New York, Calvin Klein’s home, and London, the birthplace of Palace.

The video features a global cast of talent, including cultural icons Willem Dafoe, Dame Joan Collins and the Pet Shop Boys, the Palace Skate family, models Lola Leon, Adwoa Aboah, Precious Lee and rapper Unknown T. From the East River to the Thames, Scarr’s Pizza to Rules Restaurant, the campaign film is a love letter to both cities in a cheeky and irreverent narrative chronicling the dualities of New York and London, as the cast stand proudly in their own unique identities while navigating their lives and unexpectedly crossing paths.

The film highlights the CK1Palace product and the ways in which these two seemingly incompatible brands are alike, tapping into their shared cultural significance, sense of humor and approach to style.
