There’s no time like the first… 

By now, model Elyse Knowles is a household name. She’s a successful model, brand ambassador and TV personality, with more than 899,000 followers on Instagram. But it wasn’t always this way. Knowles started modelling when she was 10 years old, so it’s no wonder she remembers her first rejections and her first big break... 

“Mum would always dress me up in really cute clothes, we’d take photos and then she decided to put me in a kid’s modelling agency,” Knowles shares with Vogue Australia. “I went to about five to 10 castings a week and didn’t get one.”

That’s the thing about looking back – you always remember your first. Your first job, your first kiss, your first relationship – there really is no time like the first. “My first kiss was when I was in grade five. It was a real kiss-and-run scenario,” Knowles tells us. “And the first big gift I received off a boy was a pair of earrings.”

Vogue ELYSE KNOWLES Calvin Kelin 2019

That’s what Calvin Klein watches and jewelry’s spring/summer 2019 campaign is all about. Inspired by different first time experiences, the brand is urging all of us to reflect on those “first” memories, the ones that still linger with us overtime. The moments we can’t forget and the ones we don’t want to.


The collection features a range of contemporary jewellery that is the perfect addition to any wardrobe. Choose from a chunky gold PVD statement necklace and matching bracelet, or opt for finer pieces with Swarovski elements, pearls or onyx.

Calvin Klein also showcases a wide range of hardware – for instance, the Bubbly style, a favourite of Knowles’, is offered in stainless steel with Swarovski pearl or onyx sphere and champagne gold PVD with either Swarovski pearls or red coral stones. The modern jewellery line features a sophisticated option, regardless of your personal style.

Calvin Klein 2019 jewellery collection is the perfect accompaniment for you to wear as you experience your own “firsts.” Whenever you slip the pieces on over the years, it will take you straight back to those special moments.
