Thakoon’s Shakespearean Shades

Tagged:  •    •  

Shakespeare in the Park is a New York summer staple, but this season, it’s getting a particularly chic twist. With hot sunglasses boutique Ilori sponsoring the shows, they’ve brought the likes of Thakoon Panichgul and Thierry Lasry on board to design a pair of shades each inspired by Shakespeare works–Twelfth Night and The Bacchae, respectively. Thakoon’s “Viola” sunglasses (left) retail for $320, and Thierry’s “Agavy” sunglasses (right) retail for $365. Both styles are available exclusively at Ilori SoHo, 138 Spring Street.
