Henrik Vibskov’s Insane Sunglasses

June 26, 2012


Let's add the reinvention of the modern sunglass shape to Danish designer Henrik Vibskov’s list of achievements, which also includes playing masterfully insane drum sets at his own store opening and turning a fashion show into a Ringing Brothers Circus. If it seemed like every spectacle shape possible under the sun has been done, Vibskov's new pair, a collaboration with Medwinds, proves there are new frontiers, in this case, overlaying a common pair of Oliver Peoples-like tortoise frames with long skinny, cartoon-eye-oval darker lenses, creating, for the face, the oddest Venn diagram of we've ever seen. For the brave pioneers of summer: head here to purchase a pair.
