Obsession. That’s how we currently feel about CALVIN KLEIN. Even though CK began back in the late 60s, the designer hit his prime in the 90s with his simple, yet brilliant clothing and advertising. It was the perfect balance to the over-the-top Versace empire, and we love that both houses are having such huge and well deserved comebacks. So here’s a look back at some of our all-time favorite CK moments starting with Brooke Shields’ famous ads from the early 80s and leading up to our current favorite, Jennifer Lawrence’s flawless Oscar debut last year, and everything in between…
At age 14, Brooke Shields began modeling for Calvin Klein Jeans. Her ads, while rather tame by today’s standards, caused quite a stir in 1980, and was just the first of many controversial advertisements CK would release over the next three decades.
Calvin Klein scored big in the 90s with models Kate Moss and Mark Wahlberg (then known as Marky Mark).
The new millennium welcomed Jamie Dornan (appropriately referred to as the male Kate Moss) and actress Eva Mendes as the new faces of Calvin Klein.
And more recently, supermodel Lara Stone did her part to promote the brand.
Actress – and spokesperson for Calvin Klein – Diane Kruger wears CK to the Met Costume Gala in 2010.
Actress Emma Stone wowed viewers – and style critics – in this backless peach Calvin Klein dress at the 2011 Golden Globes last January.
And finally, one of our favorite red-carpet moments ever: Academy Award nominee Jennifer Lawrence in Calvin Klein at the 2011 Oscars. Perf-ection!
