The sunglasses created by Jeremy Scott with Italia Independent are idiosyncratic in design, sporting colourful lenses, while their frame and arms are shot through with a strange liquid substance in a different colour, giving the impression of constant motion. They were presented on Monday on the New York catwalks at the eccentric US designer's show.

The unique, unisex model features six colour variants. It is the result of a collaboration between the designer and the emerging Italian eyewear brand, which keeps adding to its co-branding operations with the most diverse brands. This project marks Italia Independent's first collaboration with a fashion designer.

The collection will be available next June in fashion and department stores, at a retail price of €145. The plan is to continue with this project in future seasons.
