Kaitlan Collins likes fashion with a conscience
CNN’s Kaitlan Collins has built her reputation on steadiness. She’s a journalist unshaken by bluster and unmoved by grandstanding. Her confrontations with Donald Trump and his surrogates showed an unnerving calm. So to see her abandon the neutral armor of cable knews for something so fun and flirty is, in the language of media, a pivot.
The printed twinset is the work of Cala de la Cruz, an ascendant resortwear label founded in Cali, Colombia. The brand is known for its vintage-inspired shapes, brought up to date with bold florals and graphic geometry. Its designer, Carolina Lopez — a textile artist who trained at the Savannah College of Art and Design — has an instinct for color and movement. Every collection is sustainable, produced locally in Colombia through small-scale artisans. In choosing it, Collins proved she knows good style is even better when it does some good.
The top, which originally retailed for $445, might be a splurge, but it’s also a smart fashion move. With floral prints being among the hottest dress trends for summer 2025, Collins’ bright, botanical showstopper holds its own. For someone so closely associated with structured, on-air seriousness, the look is a refreshing reminder that conscious personal style can exist outside the control room — and still be on message.
