Watch: Brian See rocks Calvin Klein Jeans’ 90’s Straight silhouette, styled by Kittie Yiyi
The close friends teamed up for a one-of-a-kind project.
From NewJeans’ and Cha Eun-woo’s debut to Bright and Jeremy Allen White, Calvin Klein’s Fall 2024 campaigns have been among the most talked about this season. In the exciting instalment featuring brand ambassador Mingyu from Seventeen, the K-pop artist spotlighted the iconic 90’s Straight Jeans that features a laidback vintage aesthetic.
To recreate the same vibe, we tapped one of our local OG male fashion influencers, Brian See, to show off the timeless appeal of Calvin Klein Jeans. Styled by his longtime friend Kittie Yiyi, who’s known for her playful, creative touch, the looks showcased her deep understanding of Brian’s personal style. In the array of 90’s Straight jeans that sit loose at the waist with a soft taper, the style star brings his nonchalant confidence and laidback edge to every look. The stylist of the day, on the other hand, was dressed in effortlessly cool denim co-ords, elevated with a crisp button-down shirt and matching-coloured ankle boots.

Kittie's styling note: A denim-on-denim outfit is always fail-proof. I paired the 90's Straight Jeans with the oversized outerwear for a more voluminous finish.

"It’s always fun to be able to work with your close friend, and getting styled by Kittie brings us back to the days when I used to model for her collection back then." - Brian
"His style has evolved over the years. He was all about loud, colourful looks, but now, all he needs are sleek, refined pieces, which is why Calvin Klein suits him so well." - Kittie
Kittie's styling note: I went full-on '90s by styling Brian in a zipped sweater, 90's Loose Fit Jeans with a denim shirt tied over the waist.

"It's timeless, fun and comfortable — what's not to like?"
Kittie's styling note: I updated the classic T-shirt and jeans pairing with a cosy cardigan and a pair of edgy boots. The folded cuff on the bottom is a cool detail that's not to be missed.

"As we grow older, we prioritise our own time, but it doesn’t mean we care any less. Whenever we meet, it feels like nothing has changed — our bond remains as strong as ever." - Kittie
Kittie's styling note: The light-wash denim-on-denim look radiates a cool yet chic flair, but I layered an extra button-down cardigan under for a dressy feel.

"I tend to gravitate towards wider silhouettes, but the versatility of the 90's Straight Jeans shines through — it’s casual and stylish at the same time."
Kittie's styling note: For extra style points, I had Brian wear the hoodie off one shoulder, adding a nonchalant, cool vibe. The straight-cut jeans add a sleek touch to the look.
