BaselWorld 2012: The new “CK Agile” watch model by Calvin Klein fashion house
In the far 1968 2 friends – Calvin Klein and Barry Schwartz, – founded a clothes manufacturing company, called Calvin Klein. The distribution of roles was that Calvin was in charge of creative projects and created garment models and Barry was responsible for all financial and organization matters. In the start of its activity the brand produced only women's clothing, the designer started creating men's garments much later. Soon Calvin Klein's name started sounding more and more often within the fashion establishment and he started gaining fans and admirers, which enabled Calvin to broaden his production facilities and launch his own line of women's sportswear. In the early 70-ies women's clothing models by Calvin Klein attracted everyone's attention and kept winning bigger and bigger popularity among customers, fashion boutiques owners and fashion magazines editors thanks to its unusual sex appeal and sophistication.
In 1974 the designer launched a collection of accessories and fur products, called “by Calvin Klein”. 4 years after that he launched his first menswear collection. In the same 1978 Calvin produced the first designer jeans, having turned all the fashion industry upside down. He managed to do the inconceivable – raise the reputation of simple working uniform to the level of a Haute Couture object, thanks to which jeans became an essential part of the unfettered, stylish and fashion-forward youth. The unique cut of jeans trousers clinged the figure ideally and emphasized the length and the slenderness of legs.
In 1992 Calvin Klein introduced a completely new direction in the world's fashion industry: the “unisex” style wear, that fitted both young men and women. British top-model Kate Moss became the star of the advertising campaign for this trend. Namely this campaign brought Kate worldwide fame and renown and opened her the way to the Haute Couture world. Kate Moss became the brand's ambassador, being the ideal implementation of Calvin Klein's inimitable style.
In the end of 1997 the first watch from the world-famous clothing and accessories designer saw the light of day. Nowadays Calvin Klein actively cooperates with the Swatch Group holding, the largest watch manufacturer in the world. As a result of this partnership, ÑK Watch Co. Ltd. company appeared. The starting collection of CK Watches' stylish sportive timepieces consisted of two lines – the “Calvin Klein Watches” with sophisticated time measurers from the world of high fashion and the “ÑK Watches”, offering more vivid youth models for affordable prices.
