Modeling
In the early Aughts, the male model Fimmel made the fashion industry swoon with his perpetually-sun-kissed Australian surfer bod and long blonde hair. He is best known for his steamy Calvin Klein billboard, shot by Steven Klein, that reportedly caused traffic jams because drivers kept slowing down to stare. “I found him in a poolroom. He looked like James Dean at the time,” Calvin Klein recalled in an interview.
“He walks into my studio, into my office, and it was like drop-dead… His presence was jaw-dropping. I called Steven Klein right away and said, ‘Don’t do anything. Just put him in the underwear and put him up against the window.’”
In 2002, he appeared on the cover of W with the then also on-the-rise Gisele Bündchen under the headline “White Heat.” “The kind of girls I like certainly wouldn’t know I did Calvin, and I certainly wouldn’t tell them,” he told the magazine at the time.
