ONCE a byword for sexy snaps, the Pirelli Calendar has had yet another tyresome makeover – 2020’s is packed with FULLY-CLOTHED stars.

Created in 1963 as a freebie gift for the tyre maker’s VIP clients, the world’s most famous calendar featured models and celebs in varying states of undress.

In its sizzling 2012 edition, Kate Moss was among several supermodels to pose nude. But next year’s calendar, released last night, features stars including Emma Watson and Mia Goth re-imagining scenes from Shakespeare’s Romeo And Juliet – and it’s just a bit, well, dull and dreary.

Pirelli has rightly moved away from flashing the flesh in the wake of #MeToo, with photographer Paolo Roversi saying his pictures tell the story of modern “femininity and love”.

Katy Docherty brings you the “arty” offerings from the 2020 calendar . . .
