Calvin Klein created an Andy Warhol underwear line, in collaboration with the [Andy Warhol Foundation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kaws-warhol-ut) for the Visual Arts. This limited-edition collection features some of the artist's most famous work: stills from the 1963 experimental film 'Kiss.' At the time of release, the film was incredibly influential, going against [Hollywood's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/resort-2027-collection) traditional rules of censorship that forbade on-screen kissing to last longer than three seconds.

These controversial kiss stills were printed on the brand's classic white underwear silhouettes, including a sports bra, tank top, t-shirt, men's boxer brief, bralette and women's bikini-style underwear. This Andy Warhol underwear line by Calvin Klein is a depiction of modern romance that will be released just before Valentine's Day. The evocative pictures mixed with the brand's comfortable materials and styles make these the perfect gift for the holiday.
