Please do, @Kasi! You'd love them.

I'm liking the look of the Jacques Marie Mage Fatale, which has just dropped. It's their latest Velvet Underground collaboration.

Those are suuuupppeeerrrr sick @Graeme

[henry_david]

The Donovan has my heart beating outta my chest tho:

[Graeme]

@henry_david unfortunately the JMM website doesn't ship to Australia, so I'm hoping that someone like Twelvesixtynine or my local dealer gets them in.

Also take a look at the Clyde, which is a similar shape, but a wrap around design. (The Donovan might be too, but I haven't seen it.)

I was wondering what the Velvets frames would look like — bout what I expected! V rad.

[henry_david]

Those are stunners as well… JMM crushes. Sorry to hear that, @Graeme. Would it be too costly to have someone elsewhere in the world (say, the United States) buy them on your behalf and ship them over?

[Kasi]

Thanks

@henry_david
I will go for something like this

[Graeme]

@henry_david I'm sure that the Fatale will be carried by someone who ships internationally, be it Twelvesixtynine, Framed Ewe, Matches Fashion, or Mr Porter. There are two stockists in Melbourne, so there's a good chance that one of them will get them in.

Worst case, I've got friends in SF and Texas, and I'm sure that I can get one of them to re-ship a pair for me.

Graeme, for a minute, my wallet about cursed you. The Fatale is fantastic !

Lovely as they are, I generally prefer a more rounded shape. But, realistically, anything metal(silver) framed, and remotely close to oval in shape is fair game. Specs aren't anywhere close, though. More eye, less bridge, and much more temple would be required. Probably for the best, anyway. The Amboise are satisfying that look, and I've been hunting for an acetate frame that suits me. I've been eyeing the Plaza, and Harrison(burgundy).

A really great tribute to Nico. Love the VU so much.

I hope JMM does a tribute to Mark Lanegan. He had great taste in specs and is worthy.

I have a pair of Happy Hour heart shaped glasses in the same colorway

[popvulture]

Not gonna lie — first thought was "holy shit I'm gonna need more." These things are unbelievable.

[henry_david]

They look GREAT on you, @popvulture  That's much how I felt when I got mine. Such a lovely, substantial pair of sunglasses that fit on my head better than anything I've had before.

[popvulture]

Thanks man!!! And yeah dude they really feel wild as hell, SO hefty yet extremely comfortable. I'm in love.

Looks like a great fit @popvulture!

I picked up another pair of Hemmings from these folks in NYC and they've got an amazing selection and more in stock than about anywhere else I've looked:
