Sunglasses at Night: Ex-Ksubi Designer Launches Shades

Gareth Moody (formerly of Ksubi) has his hands full these days. Not only is he taking a firm stand on a seriously subversive take on spring ready-to-wear, he is ready to debut his newest pet project: sunglasses. The term "shades" takes on a whole new meaning with Moody's creations for his line Chronicles of Never, featuring huge frames and pitch black tinted lenses that seem to reference Jackie O, Rachel Zoe, Bob Dylan and the Brat Pack all at once. That may sound like a car crash of over-the-topness, but as you can see, they are surprisingly subtle and the perfect way to silently convey, "Don't talk to me, I'm busy." Or of course, our personal favorite, "Don't talk to me, I'm hungover and on my way to get greasy food." Either way, these are some serious shades for the brighter days ahead.
