CK…
I don’t know why but I’m always drawn to Calvin Klein even though just saying “Calvin Klein” reminds me of cowboys in the 80′s. Why does that happen? I have no idea. Maybe it was a marketing campaign they did in the eighties that just stuck in my mind. Whatever it is – I like their stuff! Its always a well done combination of simple and interesting. I really like these dresses (even though I probably would never wear them, and I admit the second one is a bit bag-ish but there is still something cool about it) and I would imagine that you, especially, would like this jacket if only so you could run around pretending you were in Bladerunner.

I think the marketing campaign they were known for in the 80′s was the one where an overly-sexed 15-yr old Brooke Shields talked dirty about her jeans, followed by that one featuring Marky Mark dancing around in his skivvies. I mean, how brilliant is that, to sell men’s underwear (and you knew that had to be what they were selling because that’s all he was wearing) with a commercial targeting every single 16-yr old post-NKOTB fan across the country.
I do like those dresses, too. I like how his stuff is very minimal, and structural, although I think I would have a hard time wearing it.
p.s. I totally run around pretending I am in bladerunner already
