The supermodel poses again alongside her husband, actor and director Edward Burns, for Calvin Klein’s new Eternity campaign.
When we think of the iconic Eternity perfume of the 1990s and 2000s, it’s Christy Turlington’s huge smile that stands out. Black and white shots, pieces of tenderness shot on the edge of the beach, a photo of a couple that symbolizes America as seen by Calvin Klein. Since the first campaign in 1988, the supermodel has been the face of the fragrance alongside model Marc Vanderloo. After 34 years, Christy Turlington poses again for Calvin Klein’s new campaign “Eternity” alongside her husband, actor and director Edward Burns.
Come back with strength and grace
Married since 2003, the couple has embodied the character of the perfume for years. Edward Burns was featured alongside his wife in 2014, 2016 and 2020. Back with a force and grace that is like disregarding many of the postulates associated with the industry. Because yes, little celebrity couples work over time. Models who can boast that they have embodied a perfume for 34 years are also rare.
Christy Turlington and Edward Burns also symbolize the beautiful story behind the name of the perfume. The word “eternity” is indeed engraved in the alliance Calvin Klein proposed to his ex-wife, photographer Kelly Rector, during their 1986 wedding. The jewel bought at auction belonged to the temporary Edward VIII, who imagined: it for his wife Wallis Simpson.
If Christy Turlington doesn’t multiply her appearances on the catwalks like her colleagues Naomi Campbell, Carla Bruni or Kate Moss, she was still in the cast of the spring-summer 2021 show. And it made a big comeback at Fashion Week. Marc Jacobs Fall Winter 2019-2020 show. An understated and elegant presence that should serve the new Eternity campaign with equal conviction.
