Yes, it's more of Bruce Weber's trademark black and white photography featuring impossibly glabrous young men (and the occasional willowy supermodel) in various states of undress and disingenuously homoerotic situations—but you have to admit that few photographers have been doing it so well for so long. And his influence is hard to overestimate: if it weren't for that Calvin Klein billboard in Times Square over twenty years ago, whatever would the current state of underwear advertising be like?
