Bright Skies Ahead

For those unacquainted with the meteoric rise of Vachirawit Chivaaree — better known as Bright — one would think that with a face and body like his, standing either in front of a screen or on a stage was just meant to be. Yes, it takes courage to take the road less taken, but with more than a few years of that under his belt, the Thai native is ready to offer much more than his natural gifts — starting with how he shows up and then with what he wants to say.

Starring in Calvin Klein’s newest campaign for Fall 2024 Denim — directed by AJ Duan and shot by Park Jong Ha — the CEO of Cloud9 Entertainment is resplendently in his element. Dressed in the latest jeans, logo tees, and denim outerwear, he oozes confidence and easily shifts between the casual and polished overtones that mark each image. He speaks to Men’s Folio about personal style on- and off-duty, how he reveals his truer self through music, and how all of these moving parts harmonise with his aspirations as an artist.
