For those not familiar with the Flat Stanley classic '60s children's books, the central character of Stanley Lambchop has magical powers to flatten out, conveniently traveling the world (mode of transporation: envelopes) and posing in photographs with new and old friends. Then, in 1995, a Canadian schoolteacher started a phenomenon called The Flat Stanley Project, a student global exchange where hand-drawn Flat Stanley paper dolls would be sent to friends across the world, often to return (albeit a little rough around the edges) with a souvenir or postcard from their travels.
Sounds like fun, right? It happens that Calvin Klein's creative director Francisco Costa is a big fan of the children's series, so he created his own version of Flat Stanley: Flat Sara. In like fashion, Costa captured his little pal doing some of their favorite downtown New York adventures—from eating oysters with Dree Hemingway at The Fat Radish to climbing those red stairs at Opening Ceremony. And even better, she's wearing beautiful Calvin Klein Collection items currently being sold at our New York flagship. Talk about a gal's dreams coming true.
