With the marketing mastery of the Cutwater ad agency, the Ray-Ban 'Never Hide' campaign promotes [sunglasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rayban-boutique) that are as individual as you are. The first two prints amusingly suggest the extensive labor involved in the manufacturing of [quality frames](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rayban-optics-ctx-collection), while the latter posters emphasize the Ray-Ban lifestyle.

Encouraging the concept of exposure, the Ray-Ban 'Never Hide' campaign counters the "hiding behind one's shades" mentality of wearing the product. Fostering an enthusiasm for clarity in the first two ads and in-the-action avidity for the rest, this series of prints constructs a compelling new perception of the product.
