Calvin Klien Ltd was founded by Calvin Klien in 1968. He started with a coat shop in a New York hotel with $10,000. By the early 1970's he was putting together award winning women's collections and well on his way to global stardom.
In the 1980's Calvin Klein help to create the concept of 'designer' jeans, selling 200,000 pairs the first week they were available. The jeans were sold with the tag line being delivered by a 15 year old Brook Shields "nothing comes between me and my Calvins".
Calvin Klein's success has in part been built on his super sexy advertising. Usually starring sublime adolescents in sexually provocative poses, his advertising always has a stylised beauty to it. He was even responsible for launching Kate Moss's modelling career and relaunching it again in 2002 after cocaine allegations. Kate typifies the beautifully androgynous, sexually ambivalent look often portrayed in Calvin Kleins advertising. It is this, combined with a strong sense of minimalist style that gives Calvin Klein as a brand such a strong identity.
ck jewellery features clean lines and the characteristic curved metal surfaces that make for sexy but simple designs. Calvin Klein jewellery uses sterling silver, hypoallergenic steel, tinted glass, black agate and resin coating in their mens and womens jewellery collections.
The ck mens jewelry collection features the ck hook and ck grid designs. Calvin Klein's grid bangle with matching pendant and ring comes in stainless steel or pdf coated (black).

When we first looked at Calvin Klein jewellery it was love at first sight. We often couldn't decide whether an individual piece was for a man or a women and we really liked that! That sense of ambiguity felt quite exciting and experimental. We love it!
