Calvin Klein, Inc., along with Calvin Klein Fragrances, a unit of Coty Prestige, and Warnaco Inc., which owns and operates Calvin Klein Underwear and is the global licensee for Calvin Klein Jeans and Swimwear, announced that Warnaco will launch a new lifestyle brand of contemporary men’s and women’s jeanswear, underwear, and swimwear under the existing fragrance brand name “ck one.” This new apparel line will take inspiration from the globally recognized ck one unisex fragrance brand and will be supported by a new global marketing and advertising campaign.

The ck one Spring 2011 offering will be available at retail in January 2011. It is planned that these new lines will be available in Calvin Klein, Calvin Klein Underwear and Calvin Klein Jeans retail stores, as well as major department and specialty stores around the world. The new offerings have already received a very positive reaction from retailers. The introduction of a synergistic ck one offering represents a significant move to engage and cultivate a younger, fashion-conscious male and female consumer.

The overall direction of the new jeans and underwear lines is energetic and fashion-forward. The ck one Underwear offering includes cotton stretch and microfiber fabrications, with a mix of basics and novelty prints. The ck one Jeans line centers on a new slouchy slim silhouette, available for both men and women in variety of washes, and is complemented by woven and knit pieces. Seasonally, the lines will offer new product introductions and will include monthly fashion deliveries.
