Model Edouard Plongeon stars in the [Kris Van Assche x Linda Farrow](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vantage-30) Spring 2012 eyewear campaign. The [captivating black and white photo series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stylish-fashion-campaigns-marc-jacobs-unveils-its-spring-2025-marcworld-cam) lensed by photographer Alessandro Dal Buoni features monochromatic imagery that is overexposed and bright.

While some images display stylish eyewear looks worn by Edouard, others show the model hiding his face and shying away from the camera. The model wears a tailored wardrobe styled by Mauricio Nardi with slicked back hair by Joseph Pujalte. Photographer Alessandro plays with light and shadow for an end result that is sharp and clean. Kris Van Assche collaborates with eyewear designer Linda Farrow for the debut of his [first ever sunglasses collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inaugural-eyewear-collection). The line, available in six different styles, is inspired by all things industrial and utilitarian with sleek, titanium lines.
