These images are taken from the sunglasses i found the most influential during the London trip. Texture must have been a huge consideration when designing as we saw large range of velvet & python skin. This made me understand how tactile eyewear must be to be well designed, not only is it about the shape and feel against the face.
Our favourite frames were always ones which are speckled. We though that tortoiseshell patterns are hugely overproduced and although they are very classic, there is nothing that would set us apart.
Linda Farrow was huge source of inspiration for looking at materials and flattering shapes. however I found Mui Mui was surprisingly inspirational when seeing the beautiful sunglasses that when worn look WAY oversized and completely do not suit any face other than that of a god.
