Here Comes the Sun

Dreamt up over the last year, our collaboration with eyewear brand Garrett Leight is finally here. Brought to life through our shared love of exquisite materials, thoughtful craftsmanship, and vintage-inspired form, the collaboration introduces two limited-edition sunglasses: made in Japan from lightweight acetate and offered in three color combinations—each feeling at once timeless and nostalgic. 

Our co-founders, Margaret and Katherine, visited the Garrett Leight team in Los Angeles, working alongside them to design each frame and select each colorway… and they’ve been wearing their samples ever since. Inspired by our classic muses—the French songbirds and silver-screen starlets of the ‘60s and ‘70s—the frames pair back beautifully to all our pieces: a vintage-inspired finishing touch we adore. Like all we make, they’re meant to be worn, loved, and lived in for years to come.

Like so many of our campaigns, the shoot unfolded as a full family affair—captured in Sicily on actress and poet Greta Rosanna Bellamacina, photographed alongside her little ones by her husband.

The DÔEN by Garrett Leight Doyenne Sunglasses feature a refined, softly sculpted cat-eye shape with a subtle lift at the outer corners, offered in Black, Tortoise, and Mink.

To Watch

A handful of films we love, sure to transport you to the sun-soaked shores of coastal Europe.

La Piscine (Jacques Deray, 1969)

A languid psychological thriller set on the French Riviera at the height of summertime.

Pierrot le Fou (Jean-Luc Godard, 1965)

A vibrant French New Wave film and a wild ride in art-house cinema. 

La Collectionneuse (Éric Rohmer, 1967)

Rohmer’s comedy-drama portrays the relationships between four very different characters as they play games of love and chance.

The Talented Mr. Ripley (Anthony Minghella, 1999)

A haunting tale of longing set along the coast of Italy.
