Leith Clark is Back!
We’re elated to team up with Leith Clark a second time on five new frames. We last collaborated in 2013, finding in her a partner who admires the old and uncommon. She has since launched and edited Violet magazine and continues to invigorate many a runway, red carpet, and editorial with her eye. And now, she’s sharing her aesthetic with us again.
We conspired side-by-side with Leith on a vintage-inspired collection that incorporates rimless frames, filigree, mixed-material constructions (think: gold-plated titanium coupled with premium cellulose acetate), and exposed screws. Leith took our classic silhouettes and exaggerated them—a cat-eye here, a winged temple detail there—for a finale that’s even better than we imagined. Each silhouette is unequivocally “Leith”, possessing that oh-so-special concoction of artistry and charm.
