Cary Grant Sun — Sunglasses

The Cary Grant Sun is Oliver Peoples naming a frame after a person who understood, without apparent effort, the relationship between restraint and presence. The shape is a large round with a keyhole bridge — a configuration that sits at the centre of Oliver Peoples' design vocabulary, but here scaled up and weighted in a thick black acetate that carries authority rather than delicacy. Grant's version of elegance was never small. The Blue Polarized lenses introduce the one unexpected element: a cool blue tint that cuts against the warmth usually associated with black acetate sunglasses, a decision that gives the frame a particular clarity in the lens register. Polarization removes surface glare without affecting the colour representation significantly. A frame that carries its reference without requiring the wearer to know it.
