Thom Browne's Spring 2014 Fashion Show Forecasts Coming Trends

The show was heavy on grey, red, and blue tones as well as aviator-style shades 

Thom Browne fashion shows are always over-the-top, costume filled events.  They are also great at foreshadowing upcoming trends in the fashion and eyewear industry.  His recent Paris show proves that as a showman, Thom Browne cannot be beat.




Thom Browne eyewear is always fashionable yet timeless.  His styles are unique and look great on men and women alike.  Keep an eye on Spectacle's Facebook and Twitter for new releases from Thom Browne and other information on his eyewear collection.

Pointillism Creates a Big Picture of Small Pieces

"We often plough so much energy into the big picture, we forget the pixels."

Pointillism art is the technique of using small dots of various colour or contrast and depth to create a larger image.  Here, Stockholm-based artist Philip Karlberg uses the format to create celebrity portraits who are known for their eyewear choices.

How the images are created

Jackie O

Steve McQueen
