Calvin Klein's New Underwear Ads

Sometimes Calvin Klein ads are seriously on point onto what is cool now in its complete simplicity and honesty. Patrick Demarchelier in 1992 took Kate Moss to a different level by capturing the intrigue of her beauty but also making a commentary of the new dilemma of Heroin on the streets of NYC. Peter Lindbergh, was able to capture another striking subject Djimon Hounsou, also capturing the unique beauty of his ebony tones and hard body, but at the same time his appearance in just briefs posing as though he is either on the run.

Or as though he just finished a hard day from work...
Each pose bringing to mind the turmoils all over Africa and economy forever shaken. Source 1, Source 2
