The 2025 Pirelli Calendar Is Beautiful People in Barely There Clothing
Another year, another Cal.
Pirelli manufactures tires but may be better known for the annual calendar it produces. The Pirelli Calendar is a classy version of a pin-up calendar. What began as a corporate gift for mechanics and garages has become a cult object for enthusiasts around the world, in part because “The Cal” cannot be bought. The 2025 Pirelli Calendar is a refresh of its 1964 origins, and in the spirit of the original, “Refresh and Reveal,” photographed by Ethan James Green on the beaches of Miami (as well as a few studio shots), features beautiful people in barely there clothing.
The Pirelli calendar is a fashion beacon, a photographer’s artistic statement, and it has the pull to bring in prominent participants. “The cast represents variety and diversity in all forms, with actors, artists, singers, and models of different ages and nationalities,” Green says. Hunter Schafer, Padma Lakshmi, Vincent Cassel, Elodie, Simone Ashley, Hoyeon Jung, Jodie Turner-Smith, Martine Gutierrez, Connie Fleming, John Boyega, and Jenny Shimizu are the pin-ups for the 2025 edition, but “Refresh and Reveal” also includes Green himself, “because the only person I could tell to be completely nude was myself.”
The 2025 Pirelli Calendar was unveiled at a rollicking party in London at the Natural History Museum earlier this week. For the rest of us, a look at the newest Cal here.
