THE CALVIN KLEIN STORY

Founded in New York in 1968, Calvin Klein quickly rose to fame with its clean, modern aesthetic and high-end simplicity. From the legendary Calvin Klein jeans of the 1970s to its iconic underwear lines of the 1980s, the brand became a symbol of accessible luxury and effortless American style. Bold, boundary-pushing advertising campaigns featuring stars like Brooke Shields, Kate Moss, and Justin Bieber cemented Calvin Klein’s status as a cultural icon.

The brand’s influence extends beyond fashion into the world of fragrance. Calvin Klein revolutionized the industry with bold scents like Obsession (1985), the romantic Eternity (1988), and the groundbreaking unisex fragrance CK One (1994). These perfumes captured the brand’s provocative spirit and remain timeless bestsellers, continually reimagined for new generations. Today, Calvin Klein continues to thrive under PVH Corp., standing as a global symbol of modern minimalism, sensuality, and confidence.
