3 Tattoo You

3 images

Don Ed Hardy is considered by many to be the “godfather of tattoo.” Over the years, he has helped to make tattoos into high-end art and incorporated traditional Japanese Irezumi style into his tattoo art, making it more vibrant and colorful. Revolution first incorporated the tattoos on the temples of Ed Hardy sunglasses. The latest Ed Hardy Collection is subtle, beautiful, and more whimsical, company representatives say.

8 Into the Deep

Koali delves deeper into the mysteries of the ocean with the release of its Coral II concept from Morel.

Like the Coral collection which came before, Coral II is also inspired by the sea anemone. This time around, however, Coral II features straight temples that imitate anemone branches while triplelayered acetate recreates movement and the feeling of volume.

The eyewear design displays a deliberately visible metal core inside the temple that is intended to evoke the structure of coral reef.

Coral II is available with twotoned metal pressed fronts that provide similar depth to the subgrouping’s triple-layered acetate fronts. Styles are available in six shapes—three acetate and three metal models—and offered in a palette of four color combinations per model, suitable for land and sea.
