Jonathan Bailey and Cubitts are the latest two forces to work together as the two launch a limited-edition eyewear design. The actor is best known for his roles in Wicked and Jurassic World: Rebirth, not to mention Bridgerton as well. Now, he works with British eyewear brand Cubitts on his own pair of sunglasses with an inclusive cause. It supports LGBTQIA+ causes through his nonprofit organization, The Shameless Fund.
The eyewear is a direct nod to the notion of 'slutty little glasses' which was brought up during his press run for the latest film. The design is notably dubbed 'Loomis' -- this is named after his scientist character in Jurassic Park. The wire frames are reimagined with stainless steel and fitted with acetate temple tips in black, and pink lenses.
