Calvin Klein was spotted out on a rare lunch date

Fashion designer Calvin Klein was seen in West Hollywood walking with longtime boyfriend Kevin Baker. The couple attracted a lot of media attention, primarily because Klein is 45 years older than his boyfriend.

The famous fashion designer, born on November 19, 1942, in the Bronx, New York, is known primarily for his great collections of women's and men's clothing, jeans, cosmetics, and perfumes, but also other useful items, such as bedding, with his signature.

Klein studied at the Institute of Fashion in New York, and after graduating in 1962, he went to work as a designer for a coat and suit manufacturer in New York's clothing industry. In 1968, when he opened his own company, the New York fashion industry was in a gloomy phase, with casual hippie-style clothing and mini-skirts that reflected the full range of fashion at the time. With that in mind, Klein, for a change, wanted to dedicate himself to designing simple and modest clothes. Although he was initially known for his suits and coats, he gradually put more and more emphasis on sportswear, especially those pieces that can be worn separately and so easily combined in several ways.

He described his design philosophy as "making simple, comfortable and modern clothes, but without anything excessive or extreme". His clothes were relatively expensive, but classic, elegant, and easy to wear, and caused a great deal of attention among buyers in the United States and other countries. His achievements are considered not only the triumph of his personal brand of classic style but also the maturing of the American fashion industry.

However, perhaps more than his clothes, Klein became famous for his commercials, some of which were on the verge of scandal. One series of commercials featured teenage actress Brooke Shields wearing a pair of classic blue jeans with the comment "Do you know what comes between me and my Calvins? Nothing.

Klein sold his company in 2003, only to retire the following year. Since then, he has rarely appeared in public, however, in 2017 he published a book simply called Calvin Klein, which summarizes the most interesting details of his career and contains numerous photographs and anecdotes.

Calvin and Kevin have never spoken publicly about their relationship, but it is known that they have been together since 2016. Before this relationship, Calvin was with porn star Nick Gruber for two years. Gruber later came out claiming that Calvin was extremely jealous and that he forced him to have a polygraph. Prior to his relationship with the boys, Klein was married to assistant and photographer Kelly from 1986 to 2006. He was also married to designer Jayne Centre, with whom he has a daughter, Marci Klein.
