As somewhat of an eyewear connoisseur, football legend and national treasure Ian Wright, has always been on our radar. He’s got an eye for bold, charismatic spectacles, and we were pretty pleased when he recently discovered MONC and purchased four pairs of our classic designs, Løkka and Belleville.

Worn in Ian’s most recent M&S campaign, we think these two styles suit him perfectly.

BELLEVILLE

Slightly oversized with a rounded Panto style shape, Belleville is a playful re-imagination of a classic 1960’s European style.

With a thick lens profile, sculpted keyhole bridge and our shodō inspired temples the Belleville has a distinct personality, much like Ian himself.

Ian opted for Blue Marble and Whiskey, coincidentally two of our most popular colours.

 

 

Seen most recently on Instagram (@crossways.pod), Ian has been wearing Belleville in Blue Marble, which he also has in Whiskey

 

 

 

LØKKA

For those that like something a little different, our roundest frame, Løkka, with our signature hexagonal brow fits the bill.

Ian picked a classic black with a punchy custom yellow tinted lens, and Bottle Green.
