Yet another leader in the menswear industry is embracing the power of digital. Today, John Varvatos launches a new website featuring brand spanking new e-commerce for all of his brands: John Varvatos, John Varvatos Star USA, and Converse by John Varvatos—plus his blockbuster fragrances. There's even a slick new editorial section profiling well-dressed gents. (John Varvatos)

Talk about a one-two punch: not only did the folks at Calvin Klein air that now notorious underwear commercial during the Super Bowl, but they just released a ten-minute mini-movie for the campaign featuring the chiseled Alexander Skarsgard to remind us that, hey, swimsuit season is only a few months away.
