Black, gold and a little New York attitude! Irina Shayk is bringing serious after-dark glamour to Donna Karan New York’s Holiday 2026 campaign.
Photographed by Mert Alas, the supermodel takes centre stage in a series of striking images that capture the warmth of golden-hour sunlight against the city’s urban backdrop. The result is sophisticated, sultry and effortlessly glamorous.
Black Dresses, Gold Details and Timeless Elegance
In one standout photograph, Irina wears a plunging black halter dress featuring sculptural gold hardware at the shoulder. The softly draped silhouette and daring thigh-high slit give the look a fluid, sensual appeal.
A black leather handbag with a chunky gold chain adds the perfect finishing touch.
The wider collection explores sleek leather trench coats, strapless dresses, shimmering evening gowns and tailored outerwear. Accessories include the Bridgehampton Tote and Cashmere Clutch.
Styled by Jessica Diehl, the campaign keeps its palette deliberately restrained, allowing rich textures, sculptural jewellery and confident silhouettes to do the talking.
With creative direction by Trey Laird, hair by Chris McMillan and makeup by Jamal Scott, the imagery celebrates Donna Karan’s signature balance of strength and femininity.
The mood? A little mysterious, incredibly polished and made for a woman who owns the room without trying too hard.
