References: etniabarcelona & highsnobiety
Etnia Barcelona recently introduced its #BeAnartist Vampire series of eyewear options inspired by 90s cult vampire films. The new limited edition series features two brand new styles in a selection of micro shades. With its old-school inspiration, the label aims to reimagine the frames in a contemporary approach, captured by Biel Capllonch. Some films that Etnia Barcelona looked to include are 'The Lost Boys' and 'Interview with the Vampire.' The lookbook sees modernistic vampires facing their fear of sunlight and garlic with the #BeAnartist Vampire frames.
The sunglasses also receive the name 'the immortal sunglasses' -- the two models are the Carmilla and the Lestat, both of which are constructed from natural acetate materials and feature scratch-resistant mineral lenses. The Carmilla boasts a dramatic cat-eye shape with six colorway selections and the Lestat takes on a more grungy design and also offers six colorway and lens options.
