Karen Millen x Helena Christensen
Karen Millen Icons Series X Helena Christensen
Karen Millen introduces the first in the series of ICONS; a collaboration with supermodel, photographer, and activist Helena Christensen.
The ICONS series is inspired by the early years of the Karen Millen brand, featuring iconic figures from the Eighties, Nineties and Noughties – curating dedicated collections inspired by their own unique style, fused with the brand’s classic design.
The first edit with Helena takes us back to the ‘90s, with the powerful and pared back look of the era inspiring the mood, featuring figure hugging bandage dresses, premium leather jackets and blazers, as well as silhouette skimming leggings. Polished but still sharp, these pieces stay true to Karen Millen’s heritage with exceptional design and craftsmanship at the heart. The clean designs, well-constructed tailoring and luxury fabrications are complimented by sharp corsetry and studded embellishments.
Helena Christensen “I’m excited to partner with Karen Millen on their first ICONS Edit. It was essential to me that the collection featured sharp, interesting pieces with that cool ‘90s edge which can easily be added to your core wardrobe and be worn and loved for years to come”
Jane Eskriett “When it comes to fashion icons, Helena is at the top of the list. Her iconic style speaks perfectly to the Karen Millen heritage and we are delighted to be able to bring her edit to our customers.”

Editor’s notes:
In 1981 with a loan of £100, Karen Millen bought 1,000 metres of cotton and began creating white shirts to sell to friends. The rest, as they say, is history. Four decades later, we’ve evolved into a destination for thoughtful styles with exceptional design, creative talent and craftsmanship we’re truly proud of. The Karen Millen logo is an assurance of enduring style and the utmost quality – now and forever.
