Irina Shayk Returns for Donna Karan's FW26 Campaign
In a downtown shoot showcasing late-night glam.
Donna Karan New York is bringing its power dressing into a new season, with Irina Shayk returning as the face of its Fall/Winter 2026 campaign. Lensed by renowned fashion photographer Mert Alas, the model stars in a series of dark looks that balance everyday wearability with after-hours glamor. From oversized leather outerwear to sculptural gold hardware and full-length sequins, the collection puts a fresh spin on the brand’s distinctly New York wardrobe.
The campaign unfolds in the warmth of golden hour, with reflective light illuminating a series of sleek silhouettes. Staying true to DKNY’s vision of the modern city woman, the collection balances power with soft femininity, pairing everyday ease with an edgier evening sensibility.
Among the standout looks, Shayk wears an open belted leather trench over bare legs, a figure-hugging strapless leather dress and a V-neck cocktail dress finished with sculptural gold hardware. For something a little more dramatic, a full-length sequin gown is layered beneath a long wool coat, while elsewhere accessories include the black leather Bridgehampton Tote and Cashmere clutch. Throughout, gold detailing adds a touch of shine to the season’s rich black palette.
At its core, the campaign celebrates Donna Karan’s longstanding approach to dressing: creating clothes around the realities of a woman’s life, without compromising on style. The collection is available now via the brand’s website.
