CALIA BY CARRIE UNDERWOOD TO SHOW AT NEW YORK FASHION WEEK EVENT SEPTEMBER 2015

 

Lead Designer Carrie Underwood Will Host Presentation of the Brand’s Fall / Winter 2015 Line

 

Nashville, Tn – Today, DICK’S Sporting Goods (NYSE: DKS) and GRAMMY® Award winner Carrie Underwood announced plans to show the new CALIA by Carrie Underwood line at the brand’s first-ever New York Fashion Week event. The presentation will take place on September 10, 2015 and will be the first activation held at NYFW HQ, the official headquarters for New York Fashion Week and new satellite hub for the wider fashion community.

 

At the private event, lead designer Carrie Underwood will be present to show off the fitness and lifestyle brands’ first Fall / Winter collection. Guests will experience first-of-its-kind Fashion Week programming and have the opportunity to take home looks directly from the runway, creating a fully immersive and distinctive brand experience.

 

Created in partnership with Carrie Underwood and DICK’S Sporting Goods, CALIA first launched in March 2015 catering to today’s woman who embraces an active lifestyle and demands more versatility from her wardrobe. With high-quality garments built to support the female body in motion, CALIA incorporates functional details and performance-driven fabrics into sophisticatedly feminine designs. The newest evolution of the line features apparel and accessories in bold, nature-inspired patterns and luxe, technical materials to help women transition both throughout their day and from fall to winter months.

 

“I am so excited to announce that we will be showing at New York Fashion Week and sharing this amazing new fall collection that we worked so hard on,” said Underwood. “Our motto for the CALIA brand, Stay the Path, becomes especially important in the winter months when colder weather, holiday indulgences and hectic schedules can leave us feeling less motivated. We designed this line to fit, flatter and function – no matter what the day brings – and my hope is that it gives women one more reason to get up and out.”

 

“Being part of New York Fashion Week marks a very exciting moment for the CALIA by Carrie Underwood brand,” said Lauren Hobart, Senior Vice President & Chief Marketing Officer, DICK’S Sporting Goods. “The success of CALIA shows just how in-demand fashionable and functional fitness options are among women. In the newest evolution of the line, we’ve focused on adding depth and breadth as we continue to build a brand that is as multi-faceted as today’s active woman.”
