Collaborations continue to evolve in eyewear
A second sunglasses collaboration from the independent brand Haffmans & Neumeister with stylist Marcus Paul presents sunglasses with a striking and charismatic style that shift from bold and bulky to thin and minimalist, the signature style of the German label. As with many collabs by independent eyewear labels at the present time, the style of the sunglasses series produced with an outside collaborator, allows for a creative freedom and fresh, individualistic perspective.
The new models are produced in handmade Italian acetate (fronts) and stainless steel sheetmetal (temples), and include four shapes – with a palette that is restrained and classically inspired with lens colours coordinated in demure tones of green, grey and brown. The frames are releasing for the season at selected optical retailers as well as the fashion retailer, Dover Street Market.
Marcus Paul is a NYC-based stylist, who has worked extensively with top talents throughout the worlds of music, sports, and art, specializing in image and brand consulting. Paul has developed collaborative projects with Dries Van Noten and Dior and has created editorials seen within the pages of publications from GQ to Vogue.
