The video for Christy Turlington’s Calvin Klein Underwear campaign has dropped and it features the 44-year-old, all smouldering eyes and glistening in the heat, in a sort of 1990s homage.

The underwear, a variety of black bras and pants, is coolly minimalist, very early 1990s, as you would expect from Calvin Klein, and her hair is slicked back, reminiscent of Sharon Stone in 1992’s Basic Instinct.      

Turlington’s face is just as arresting as it was in her 1990s heyday, her nose silhouetted in shadow in the first frame, as perfect as ever, and her body is slim and strong from all that yoga she does. 

Looking to camera, she says: ‘Clothes tell a story, sometimes it’s true, sometimes it’s what you want people to think, but this says what I really feel. It’s not a secret, just personal. You might be surprised. Just between you and me.’

It’s hard to know exactly what she means by that, but she says it with such authority and looks so good that you finding yourself agreeing with her.  

Turlington, who had been absent from modelling to concentrate on her humanitarian work and her children, is having an industrious autumn/winter 2013; as well as appearing in the Calvin Klein Underwear (the print image shot by Mario Sorrenti is above), she has appeared in the Prada and Jason Wu campaigns.
