New in: ARETHA, TINA, MOORE & JAMAL

Introducing Black Eyewear’s latest quirky sunglasses designs , now available online and in store in 10 colours, including 3 new playful shades that are perfect for the warmer months ahead.

This four frames come from the need to translate the spirit of our most coveted frames in new styles designed for smaller faces in mind.

Black Eyewear’s current collection includes strong frames like Slam and Franco, some bold powerful designs like Pharoah and Miles, but we felt that none of these robust frames were suitable for smaller faces.

We were missing something strong and lively but also stylish and feminine, a spirit that remained true to the ethos of the 1950s.

When it came the moment to finalise the colour selection, we decided to take a risk, we chose to introduce 3 new challenging colours, not widely available in the eyewear market: DOVE, CARNATION and BUTTERSCOTCH.

LAUNCH MONTH PROMOTION
