PVH Corp. has appointed David Savman as global brand president of Calvin Klein, replacing Eva Serrano who has served in the role since March 23. Under Serrano, the brand returned to the runway for the first time in six years after naming Veronica Leoni as the new creative director for Calvin Klein Collection.

Savman is currently PVH’s chief supply chain officer and global head of operations, and served as interim CEO for PVH Europe in 2024. Serrano will be an advisor for the transition and remain with the company, which also owns Tommy Hilfiger, until the end of the year.

As global brand president of Calvin Klein, Savman will be tasked with expanding the brand’s “product, marketing and marketplace strength,” PVH CEO Stefan Larsson said in a statement Thursday.
