Hopes a major international retailer moving to Lambton Quay will give a post-pandemic boost to Wellington's CBD.

Clothing brand Calvin Klein has confirmed it will set up shop in part of the building that once housed Kirkcaldie and Stains, and more recently David Jones.

It shut down in June.

First Retail Group Managing Director Chris Wilkinson says it's great news for the capital.

He says having the acknowledgement of an international brand is a great first step in enlivening the area again.

Other tenants for the rest of the building's space haven't yet been announced.
