Oliver Goldsmith Rainbow


Exciting news Oliver Goldsmith lovers!

The new 'Rainbow Collection' limited edition colours will soon be available in some of the most beloved Oliver Goldsmith vintage designs, including iconic frames The Fuz (1966) and Norum (1958).

It's no secret that The Fuz has long been one of our favourite OG sunglass designs. Named after British slang for police after a nearby riot interrupted a photoshoot for the brand new sunglasses on the streets of London in 1966, The Fuz was featured in Two for the Road with Audrey Hepburn and appeared on the front cover of Vanity Fair in 1965.

Although the Norum was originally designed in 1958, it was only recently re-released and has quickly become one of our most desired frames. The unique shape and cut of the acetate allows the colours to shine through and makes a huge difference on the overall effect of the design. An OG classic, the Norum was famously worn by Linda Evangelista on the cover of Vogue Italia. 

The exotic new colours have delicious names like Papaya Rainbow and Blue Rainbow and conjure images of white sand beaches and palm trees, adding a splash of the tropical to the already stunning collection.
