From Justice Smith to Indya Moore to Troye Sivan to Pabllo Vittar, Calvin Klein has been a very queer-inclusive fashion label by hiring LGBTQ+ celebrities to appear in their campaigns. Not only have these campaigns been important for representation and diversity, but they’ve also been incredibly beautiful, sexy, and fun.

Though Calvin Klein makes all sorts of clothes, apparel, perfume, and jewelry, one must recognize that the brand is best known for its underwear ads featuring gorgeous celebs. As time goes by, the company has managed to stay relevant in pop culture and among consumers, often making headlines for its sensual marketing campaigns and iconic products.
