Founded in 1969, British luxury eyewear brand Cutler and Gross combines the finest Italian craftsmanship with irrefutably cool style. Since its establishment in fashion’s halcyon days, the brand’s signature creativity has been applied to sunglasses and optical frames with their trademark numbered designs and absence of an ostentatious logo.

For decades, Graham Cutler and Tony Gross’s frames relied, in part, upon their reputation being dripped and whispered within style and fashion circles like verbal quicksilver. Considered bastions of iconic eyewear, Cutler and Gross designs continue to grace many of the most recognisable faces in the worlds of art, design, music and film.

Akira channels the romantic and softer glamour of 1980s New York, where Debbie Harry's unmistakable attitude continues to defy convention today. This oversized butterfly-silhouette sunglass is handcrafted with external milling and bevelling for 3D, statement-making definition. One of three exclusive styles designed in collaboration with Debbie Harry, available in highly limited-edition runs.
