If the Mulberry and Cutler & Gross pairing didn't do it for you, good news: Kris Van Assche and Oliver Peoples have also teamed up on a new line of shades. The line debuted today at the former's Paris runway show and will be available this summer for 500 bucks a pop. Hope you like the frames-they only come in one style for now, but at least the lenses are interchangeable.
Today in collaborations, part 12
Coming this spring to the already crowded field of sunglass makers: A five-pair collection from Mulberry and British vintage brand Cutler & Gross. The line (including a set of aviators, naturally) is said to be inspired by the latter company's archival frames and will set you back around $440 a pair. And if you need something to carry them in, Bob Geldof has an idea for you.
Finally, a men's shop for Boomtown Rats fans
DNR reports today that up-and-coming designer Adam Lippes has opened his first store in NYC's Meatpacking District. The 2,500-square-foot shop will carry the Adam sportswear line, as well as his better-known womenswear. Meanwhile, over in London, Mulberry has launched its first ever freestanding menswear shop. The tiny Covent Garden space-all 300 square feet of it-will carry both accessories and clothes. The real draw? The Bob Bag (above), a $1,900 leather travel case designed by Live 8 impresario-slash-manbag-lover BobGeldof.
