The glasses are available in black, tortoise and navy, with white detailing featured at the temples, while its archival round frame furthers its retro motifs. The TB-500 took the runway recently at Thom Browne’s “Man vs. Beast” show for Paris Fashion Week, where each piece was juxtaposed against the models’ camouflaged faces. Look out for the collection to hit select Thom Browne and Dita retailers in the coming months." Read more.

Behind the Scenes of the Browne-Dita Deal

The Los Angeles Times comes into the story behind the Thom Browne and Dita eyewear deal: "Fashion designer Thom Browne recently rolled out his latest brand extension -- a collection of retro-cool unisex sunnies and optical frames inspired by architects, politicians, industry and design of the 1940s, '50s and '60s. Besides being a super-stylish selection of shades that keys perfectly into the TB aesthetic, the eyewear program is noteworthy not only because it marks the label's first foray into licensed products, but also because the company behind the fabulous frames is Los Angeles-based Dita Eyewear."
