Sparks gets Sunny

For the first time ever, designer Philip Sparks has collaborated with eyewear designer Jordan Paul from Junction eyewear shop Optianado. The unisex glasses collection features Spark’s vintage inspired signature. The classic shape is flattering on most faces, the only problem is making up your mind on which ones to buy – although there is only one design, both the lenses and acetate frames come in five different colours.  $295.

Christian has been a cultural and style junkie since the age of 6; while most kids were swiping cookies, he was swiping his grandfathers' Patek Philippe. Raised to appreciate art, fashion,design and  literature (yeah, this one actually reads) by a single mother fondly called Jackie-O. Christian quickly went from childhood cultural capital thief to academia protégé. Referred to as the cat's meow by some, too clever by half by others, Christian eschewed the academic life and ran away to join the circus -the fashion circus. Several well-appointed positions later and a career on the rise would be most people's dream but it was time to say fuck off and start all over again.

This is Christian Dare Unedited.
