Brooke Shields in History of American Fashion
Brooke Shields (1965–) is a veteran actress and model who started out as a child star, having modeled since she was less than one year old.
Shields has starred in several films, including Pretty Baby (1978)—where she played a 12-year-old prostitute—and the box-office hit The Blue Lagoon (1980). She's perhaps most famous for her starring role in the notorious Calvin Klein jeans advertising campaign of 1980 to '82. She appeared from multiple angles in tight-fitting jeans, reading double-entendre lines such as "You know what comes between me and my Calvins? Nothing."
Shields was just 16 at the time, and New York City's WCBS-TV and WABC-TV banned that particular commercial in response to listener complaints. However, Calvin Klein reported a 300% increase in sales revenues over a 90-day period.6
