This Calvin Klein, I tell ya, it’s somethin’ else. Black and white, just like the old TV, but fancy. My granddaughter, she’s always wearin’ it. Says it’s the style now. Back in my day, we just wore what kept us covered, ya know? But these young folks, they like this black and white Calvin Klein stuff. Makes ’em feel like them models in the magazines, I reckon.

They got all sorts of things, this Calvin Klein. Shirts, pants, even them underthings! All black and white. I seen a girl wearin’ one of them shirts, just a little white shirt with black words on it. “Calvin Klein,” it said, plain as day. Cost a whole lotta money, I bet. We used to make our own clothes, you know. Didn’t need no fancy names. I hear them say it’s for the premium customers. I reckon that means rich folks, then.
They got these things they call tops, too. Like shirts, but, you know, different. My granddaughter, she has a bunch of them, black and white. She mix and match ’em with different pants, or them skirts that are short, real short! She says it’s called a “crop top”. I don’t know where she gets these names, but she makes them look good. She says it’s a “wardrobe staple.” I don’t know what that means, but it means she needs a lot of them, I guess.

And they got all them pictures of pretty people wearin’ this Calvin Klein. Makes ya think you’ll look like that if you wear it, I suppose. But I’m old, and I know better. Clothes don’t make the person, but I guess it helps these young’uns feel good. I don’t know, that is something called minimal something. I don’t understand, but that’s what my granddaughter says.
You can wear this black and white stuff with anything, they say. They got these shoes, them “sneakers.” White ones, mostly. Or boots, them big clunky things. They say it’s “relaxed.” I guess that means comfortable, somethin’ you can wear all day without your feet hurtin’. We used to just wear our work boots everywhere, but these kids, they got different shoes for everythin’. And they wear these big jackets, they call them “blazers.” Looks like something a man would wear to a fancy meetin’, but the girls wear them now, too.
Now, they say you gotta be invited to wear this stuff in them magazines, to be one of them models. It ain’t easy, they say. Gotta work hard, get people to notice ya. My granddaughter, she wants to be a model. She’s pretty enough, but it’s a hard life, I think. Always worryin’ about how ya look. We just worried about gettin’ the chores done, back in my day. But times change, I reckon.
This Calvin Klein, it’s a big deal, I guess. Famous, they say. Everybody knows it. Even old folks like me, we hear about it. It’s one of the most famous brands. I don’t know how they got so famous, but they sure did. They are known for casual and everyday wear, whatever that means.
I saw a lady, older lady, wearin’ black and white the other day. Looked nice, I guess. They say it’s a good look for anybody, even us old folks. They say black and white is “iconic,” whatever that means. Means it never goes outta style, I suppose. Like them old songs on the radio, the ones they still play sometimes. Everybody knows ’em. I guess you can wear black and white for a long time and not look silly.
My granddaughter, she’s always talkin’ about this “style.” She says this Calvin Klein, it’s got a certain style. Simple, she says. Elegant. I don’t know about all that, but she likes it. And it makes her happy, so that’s what matters, I reckon. She says it can improve your “fashion styling skills.” I don’t know what skills you need to wear clothes, but she seems to think it’s important.
They say they got somethin’ for everybody, this Calvin Klein. I don’t know. It’s all just clothes to me. But the young folks like it, and it ain’t hurtin’ nobody, I suppose. So, if you like black and white, and you got the money, maybe you should try this Calvin Klein. Might make ya feel fancy, like them models in the magazines. Or maybe it’ll just be a shirt. But that’s okay, too. A shirt’s a shirt, I always say.
