Ksubi Eyewear – Summer 2013

Ksubi Sunglasses - Summer 2013

Ksubi Eyewear’s Summer 2013 collection is now available.

Australian based, Ksubi has long been one of our favorite labels here at Eyegoodies.  They never fail to demonstrate their ability to depart from conformity and create collections which are concise and always original— as in the case with their latest summer 2013 offering.

The range takes its cues from their ready-to-wear collection which highlights “religion, royalty, and old world luxury”. However in true Ksubi fashion this is translated with a fresh fashion forward pulse.   The collection includes a diverse assortment of one of a kind styles, such as the appropriately named ‘BATCAT’, a twist on a cat-eye design where the ends are shaped like a bat’s wings. Or the ‘Lacerta’, a variation of the same shape which features translucent cut-outs.  Fan favorites such as the ‘CISCO’ and ‘ARA’ sunglasses return, but this time are set off with high shine gold metal or gold mirrored lenses.

Richard Nicoll X Ksubi | Limited Edition

richard nicoll X Ksubi | Limited Edition

Ksubi Eyewear joins forces with world renowned designer Richard Nicoll for a limited edition capsule collection.

The highly acclaimed summer 2012 collaboration between Richard Nicoll and ksubi is based on Henri Georges Clouzot’s unfinished 1966 ‘Masterpiece L’enfer’.

“Approaching the idea of taking classic cat’s eye and 1950-60’s shapes, which are modernized through detail and technique to create sleek and refined frames, the capsule offers architecturally strong lines softened with reflective surfaces and chain detailing, further resulting in a look that is simultaneously minimal and glamorous.The monochromatic colour palette is reminiscent of Clouzot’s French 60’s cinematography while glossed styles are carefully outlined with metallic hues. Chrome and mirrored lenses are nostalgic yet directional.”

The collection is filled with one head turning piece after another: glossed acetate styles with metallic outlined lenses, as well as metal frames polished to such a purity they are indistinguishable from their matching silver mirrored lenses (a strong effect hard to capture on camera, best appreciated in person).

Cutler And Gross Spring/Summer 2012 | Hong Kong Love Story

Cutler and Gross - Spring Summer 2012

Cutler and Gross Spring/Summer 2012 “A Hong Kong Love Story” is now in stock.

Each season Cutler and Gross whisk us away with an alluring passionate tale. Through a time, a place, a mood — an awe inspiring collection perfectly reveals itself.  The Spring Summer 2012 range entitled “Hong Kong Love Story” transports us to Hong Kong in the early 1960’s, with a romantic feeling of forbidden love.

cutler-and-gross-inspiration board
“He was a broken-hearted journalist, she a beautiful but world-weary young married secretary, neglected by her work-obsessed husband. The couple met by chance in Hong Kong, simply by walking past each other to their different apartments.
Cupid’s arrow aimed precisely at the two lost souls and they fell instantly in love. As time went by she became more fearless with her style and more beautiful and alluring by wearing stronger colours and patterned cheongsams. He also became more dapper and more protective towards her.”

With a touch of nostalgia Cutler and Gross introduces several one of a kind shapes of both sun and optical this season. Thoughts of Chinese engravings, the warm colors of sculpted wood, jasmine tea leaves, and the fragrance of mango and lychee give rise to stunning colors such as: “Rose Chinoise” a beautiful soft pink, vibrant “China Blue”, “Veneer”, and “Lychee”.  As always, the quality and craftsmanship of each frame is  remarkable and at the absolute highest possible standard.  From the materials to the sizing and proportions, each subtle detail is perfectly executed, such as the signature engraving pattern on the “1053″ model, or the filigree etched metal work and brow bar on their “1055″ aviator model, among our favorites.

Ellery Sunglasses | 2012

Ellery Sunglasses

Just arrived from Australia, the much anticipated Ellery 2012 collection is now in stock. Supply Limited.

Hailing from Western Australia, Kym Ellery has been making waves with her strong sexy clothes ever since her label ELLERY debuted in 2007. Acclaimed by industry insiders as well as just about anyone who has had the pleasure to see her designs; from celebrities such as Madonna, Lady Gaga, Kate Bosworth… to being featured in magazines such as Vogue, Harpers Bazaar, and Russh(just to name a few).

Building off a very successful limited edition collaboration last year with Graz Eyewear — Ellery and Graz have now joined forces once again for an expanded lineup of special edition ELLERY shades for 2012. For those unfamiliar with Graz Eyewear, it is headed by none other than Graz Mulcahy (the former driving force behind AM eyewear and Ksubi).  The creative duo worked closely on every bespoke design to represent both of their signature looks.

The landmark, chic, and extremely hard to find cat-eye “Quixote” style is back, but this time in gorgeous semi-translucent colorways such as: “Lucid Fairyfloss”, and “Lucid Listerine”(our favorites), also a version featuring gold metal arms!  Consisting of a total of four unique styles, each one available in a several stunning colors, there is sure to be a pair with your name on them. As with all Ellery sunglasses, supply is limited, so don’t wait too long.

Waiting For The Sun Sunglasses

Waiting For The Sun Sunglasses

Eyegoodies is proud to welcome to the site “Waiting for the Sun” sunglasses.

Always on the lookout for unique designers we couldn’t help but be drawn to the hand-carved all wooden sunglasses of Waiting for the Sun. Handmade in Paris France each pair of sunglasses is meticulously constructed using super lightweight natural materials such as Australian tea wood, rose wood, or bamboo. Classic styles such as the wayfarer, cat-eye, P3, and even a round John Lennon esque style are given a completely different look and feel.

Wood offers great properties unlike any other material —- each piece of wood has different natural veins, making each sunglass unique.  Also wood changes overtime with use, from sunlight, moisture…so like a faded loved pair of jeans it only gets better with age.  Other notable frame features include optical spring hinges for increased comfort and Carl Zeiss lenses which are known for their superb optics.

Each pair of sunglasses comes complete with a special edition 2041 cm2 artist designed scarf, as part of Waiting for the Sun’s “2041 program”.  The 2041 program is a partnership allowing various artists from all over the world, such as Steven Harrington, Parra, PAM, and more, to design a 2041 cm2 sized scarf to protect your glasses.  The scarf design included with each pair of sunglasses is chosen at random.

Without further ado…
