FOUREYES ON ZAMBESI EYEWEAR


We attended Zambesi's debut eyewear collection launch this week and got to see the products of a collaboration between eyewear designer Joshua Matta and Zambesi. Described as "mildly masculine", there are three sun and three optical styles. The industrial design aesthetic coupled with the use of premium materials such as Japanese acetate and hand-dyed lenses resulted in some very elegant and contemporary frames - which we will surely see on the streets this Spring.

We loved the use of mis-matched coloured lenses in the sunglasses which added a quirky but stylish touch. FOUREYES' favourite styles were: Alex - Aeronaut with tint lenses, Chin - Aeronaut with mirror lenses, Danny - Space Cadet with mirror lenses, Mino - Jetson with mirror lenses. For more info on the range, check out the Zambesi Eyewear website.

The launch took the form of an installation with models wrapped in bed sheets, lounging on beds in these great frames - take a look at what we saw below.
