Calvin Klein to spend a night in prison

Fashion house cK Calvin Klein is spending a night in Singapore prison. No, its laundering operations haven't finally been sussed by the fashion police. It's showcasing its Spring 2010 collection in the former Queenstown Remand Prison before it is demolished at the end of the month. 

The Straits Times reported that the debut show will take place tonight, and guests will be able to preview looks from the ck Calvin Klein brand's spring collection, as well as view an installation by Singaporean photographer and director Geoff Ang. It is the first time a commercial event is being held there since the former jailhouse closed down last August.

It's not all just for fashion's sakes though -- cK Calvin Klein will earmark 20 percent of all sales this weekend at its four boutiques here to benefit the Yellow Ribbon Project, which helps former criminal offenders re-integrate back into society. Retail giant Club 21, which is licensed to distribute, market and operate boutiques for ck Calvin Klein in Europe and Asia, secured the former prison as the venue for the show.
