Dakota Johnson and Role Model Seemingly Confirm Romance in Adorable Date Night Pics

Melanie Griffith didn’t need much persuasion when it comes to sharing how she feels about daughter Dakota Johnson’s new role. 

After The Social Network actress debuted her racy Calvin Klein spring 2026 ad campaign, the Body Double star gave her daughter her flowers.

“Isn’t she lovely?” Melanie commented under Dakota’s March 8 Instagram post where she posed in a black bra and underwear set. “My beautiful Coqui in her Calvin’s.”

Indeed, Dakota, 36, stripped down to her blue jeans for a topless commercial for the brand’s latest collection of denim and undergarments.

In the commercial directed and photographed by Gordon von Steiner, the Fifty Shades star lounges on a sofa as she reads over a script, later cutting to Dakota enjoying a solo game of pool while sporting nothing but a pair of the brand’s panties and dark heels.

After lounging by a luxurious pool with a book by her side, the Materialists actress could be seen dancing on a bed while wearing a pair of baggy blue jeans. To conceal her breasts, Dakota left little to the imagination as she used her long brown locks to cover them. Moments later, the risqué ad continues in the kitchen, where she places a set of pomegranates over her chest followed by a pitcher and coffee cup.

“Calvin Klein jeans and underwear have a timeless quality that makes everything feel right the moment you put them on,” she said in a March 9 statement describing the partnership. “When a woman is alone at home working or reading or doing whatever, it can feel quite liberating and sensual. Channeling that, and pairing that energy with Calvin Klein's iconography, felt both singular and classic.”

While Melanie—mom to Dakota with ex Don JohnsonAlexander, 40, with ex Steven Bauer, and Stella, 29, with ex Antonio Banderas—praised the Madame Web star’s stripped-down campaign, she previously shared that she does have her limits.

After all, you won’t catch the Something Wild actress watching her daughter’s performance in the Fifty Shades series. 

"Would you want to see your child having sex like that?” the 68-year-old told reporters at Clive Davis' Grammys party in 2015.  “Just regular sex, I couldn't do that. But the 'room of pain' sex? I definitely couldn't do that!"

Though Melanie was “so happy” for her daughter when she was cast as Anastasia Steele in the book-to-movie adaptation, she noted that she can be proud from afar.

"She would be very uncomfortable if I saw it, and I would be very uncomfortable if I saw it," she explained. "So we would never be able to talk about it, so why would I see it? You know what I mean?"
