He’s the cheeky ‘lad’ from Lancashire. The poster boy of all things quintessentially British. “The collection focuses on a circular story, with a nod to the more traditional styles like the aviator and classic wayfarer,” he explained.

Henry on working with Le Specs, "I really liked the idea of Le Specs' heritage and campaigns, along with its irreverent and cheeky philosophy.“

The one in the bottom is called Hoodies, iconic round style, with metal eyelid hoods in gold, black or purple. They're my favorite from the collection.

With a range of 8 styles & 19 pieces, the collection focuses on round silhouettes and goggle-like shapes in a series of classic colours along with clear, green and purple highlights. Le Specs designer Hamish Tame explains “We started building on a circular story, and it evolved into more of a fixation with eyebrows and facial features. The overall aesthetic of the range feels very fresh, and Henry was constantly coming up with new and crazy ideas that we bounced around.”

In Singapore, Henry Holland for Le Specs is retailing exclusively at ACTUALLY which is located on 29A Seah Street. All sunglasses are priced at S$125.
