The J.Crew x SUPER collaboration has resulted in two new sunglass styles: The Gals and Ciccio.
The first silhouette is a semi-translucent acetate frame with gold-pink sunglass lenses. The second, a long-standing favorite, is now offered in a two-tone color fade, also mocked-up in acetate, along with optical lenses. Both styles are cool and modern, whether you prefer a solid hue or a color gradient.
This mini-collection marks yet another one of J.Crew's forays into new, niche territory. The brand is continually looking to refresh itself with the help of many creative collaborators. So far, the J.Crew x SUPER partnership is looking like a massive success. Both frames in the collection are simple and flattering -- an instant style statement.
