Garrett Leight x Thierry Lasry Collaboration
Wayfarers, aviators, cat-eyes… Generic, generic, generic. It’s time to step your eyewear game up with something a tad more daring. For example, the new Garrett Leight and Thierry Lasry collaboration is the perfect example of stepping out of the box without overdoing it.
The collaboration consists of two designers that were inspired by their love for each other’s homes — Los Angeles and Paris. Leight’s orange and blue flash mirror coated lenses were inspired by his California view of the sunset and ocean. While Lasry’s soft pastel coated temples and clip-ons were inspired by Paris’ romantic and majestic sceneries.
Garrett Leight showcases his classic, retro and thin sleek acetate designs, while Thierry Lasry plays with the mixture of colours combined with distinct futuristic vintage shapes.
These shades were produced in limited quantities and Spectacle is one of the few lucky ones to carry them. They are currently available at our Queen St. West boutique!

Spectacle Has You Covered For Fall / Winter 2012 Trends!
As another summer comes to an end and our wardrobes change with the season, it’s only fitting to change our eyewear collection as well, right? Well, we at Spectacle think so and we have just the right fall trends for you!
Dressing accordingly to the cool fall breeze is key and that includes keeping your eyes protected. A neat new fall trend that designer Thom Browne brought back to the eyewear industry is the look of “blinders” or “side cups”.

| The TB-010A-T-56 |
This unique and handsome Thom Browne frame is best fitted for any man, on any occasion and is guaranteed to flow naturally not only with the contours of your jawline, but fall attire as a whole. This handcrafted black acetate sunglass, paired with acetate temples, stainless cables and brown or white leather side cups is definitely a must-have. The custom titanium three-barrel hinge along with anti-reflective, UV protective lens coatings is part of the perfect package for the fall season.

| The Soloist |
What are the two perfect “go to” fall frames, you ask? TheSoloist ‘Teardrop’ and ‘Round’ are two frames that Oliver Peoples features in their 2012 season collaboration with TheSoloist Japan designer, Takahiro Miyashita. TheSoloist pursues a vintage-inspired aesthetic with close attention to detail and craftsmanship that will never go unnoticed. You can’t go wrong with its sleek, clean-cut, original, vintage hybrid style.
TheSoloist Teardrop plays on the original aviator shape with acetate temples and top-bar; it also features filigree detailing and contrasting colour combinations. Spectacle carries all four colour options along with polarized glass lenses. TheSoloist Teardrop frame is the ideal sunglass to compliment its snazzy optical partner!
TheSoloist Round continues the vintage look and feel with a hybrid feature of filigree metal eyewire paired with acetate temples and top-bar. The contrasting feel of metal and acetate along with the contrasting colours of the plastic, creates a unique, simplistic beauty to this frame. Spectacle carries all three colour combinations along with its custom fit vintage-inspired lenses.
Mosley Tribes x Crooks & Castles - Castellano

| The Castellano |
Mosley Tribes and Crooks & Castles have come together once again to commemorate The Crook’s 10th Year Anniversary. To celebrate its decade milestone, Spectacle was pleased to re-release the Castellano frames!
Spectacle carries both limited edition colourways of the Castellano frames in a modern matte black acetate with brushed gold finished detailing and grey gradient lenses. The other colour is a vintage-inspired tortoise shell acetate with brushed gold detailing and spice brown gradient lenses. Both makes will have a custom 10-year anniversary stamping inside the frame temples, accompanied by the Mosley Tribes case and a custom limited edition cleaning cloth.
Gold and Wood- B24

| The B-24 |
The Gold and Wood-B24 frame is made with the most sophisticated materials that are durable enough to stand the fall and winter seasons. The elegance and thickness of the precious woods combined with the metallic structure are perfect for the fall season as it releases a warm and friendly tone. This frame was designed without unnecessary detailing, which makes it perfectly pure for the right man.
Oliver Peoples-DBS
The Oliver Peoples DBS (Daddy B Squared) frame is designed as a partner to the iconic Oliver Peoples Daddy B. This oversized, retro-inspired masculine design has a squared-shape lens, suitable to hit all the contours of a male’s jawline, along with providing full coverage protection. The DBS also features the three-pin detailing design on the end-pieces of the frame. Spectacle has all four classic colours, including the new custom colour, Cascara Tortoise/Buff Gradient.

Spectacle Summer Trends 2012: Vintage & Classics With a Twist
Trends come and go; they say hello and they say goodbye but nobody likes goodbyes so how about a trend that stays and remains timeless? Spectacle’s summer trends are focused on vintage and classic frames that have a little “umph” in them to maintain that classic yet edgy and modern look.
You can’t go wrong with the classic aviator! The ic! Berlin raf s. are the perfect summer pair to stand the heat— the spring steel helps to maximize flexibility and strength to hold up to all your summer adventures! Classic aviators are one of the easiest frames to throw on and go about your day whether your dressed up or dressed down.
Come check out these and more Summer 2012 shades at Spectacle!

| Oliver Peoples Sheldrake |
The Oliver Peoples Sheldrake frame is a classic-modern twist on a vintage round frame, which in fact, was inspired by Andy Warhol. The transparent champagne acetate colour, paired with a vintage rose tint lens is the perfect summer mix that goes well with a nice summer tan. Many shy away from round frames but please don’t— a rounded or more oval shaped face works well with a round frame as it tends to follow the contours of the face; making it look more natural and soft. A face blessed with strong features and jaw lines also benefit from a round frame as it contrasts well, giving off a more soft and edgy look with a bit of a statement.

| Oliver Peoples Mande |
The Oliver Peoples Mande frame is a ultra feminine sunglass that was inspired by the 1950’s retro fashion with a style savvy woman in mind. Handcrafted with substantial, rounded acetate and an upswept cat-eye look, this fierce frame is made to turn heads. The new amber tortoise/buff gradient colour is a rockin’ colour combo for the summertime. Plus, anything with an upswept cat-eye gives the illusion of an instant facelift— huge bonus for the ladies!

| Thierry Lasry Platony |
Thierry Lasry takes a very unique, fresh, avant-garde approach to sunglasses especially in the new Thierry Lasry Platony (V011) vintage frame. It is based off of the concept of “futuristic-vintage” as they utilized vintage designs and colour palettes, while incorporating an updated modern touch with such ease and elegance. These pastel colour blotches are made for summer and are made to brighten any outfit. All handmade in France, Thierry Lasry frames are guaranteed with the best materials and are made to last for many summers to come.

| Mosley Tribes Lyndel |
Everyone has the staple wayfarer sunglass but how about one with a twist? The Mosley Tribes Lyndel frames bumps it up a notch with a retro-inspired acetate frame, crafted in an angular plastic cut to hit all the contours of the jaw line. The keyhole nose bridge also accentuates the soft contoured lens shape and is best for hugging the nose; giving it a more tailored feel. The Mosley Tribes Lyndel frames are one you can’t go wrong with— it’s an easy wear type of frame that makes the men look more handsome and the females looking edgy. Try them in a forest green matte finish and I promise it’ll go with that summer tan!

| Garrett Leight Harding |
Have you heard of frames that are vintage mixed with classic mixed with a twist times three? Well, now you have! Garrett Leight’s Harding frames are part aviator, part wayfarer, and part round and are inspired by the playwright, Arthur Miller. This three-way mix has got to be a must-have frame for the summer and one that’ll make any male and female too hot for the heat to handle!

Another way to stay classic with a twist is adding these amazing, practical clip-on or flip-up sun glass lenses to your own prescription glasses! Here we have the classic round Garrett Leight Hampton frame with a black matte finish clip on; and the classic retro matte black Oliver Peoples NDG (Nom de Guerre collaboration) with the flip-up clip on. Pretty snazzy, eh?
