It’s an intriguing look book of its own accord… And right on brand message, too. Tribal beading, burnished bronze and engraved silver, belonging well and truly in the sass & bide realm, are collaged against the images into backdrops and crowning headpieces alike.
But the true stars of the images are the sunglasses. This is a look book showcasing the brand’s summer 2012 eyewear collection, after all. Titled LADYSAINT, the 18-piece range is a fusion of signature prints, textural detailing and bold metallic finishes.

Classic shapes are given a twist with graphic patterns and monochromatic acetates pitted against high-shine metals. Much of what you’d need for the summer season is covered: subtle cat eyes to the wayfarer shape, to a particularly cool round pair with a tortoiseshell bridge.
The range launches in Australia come September. You can view the full collection by clicking on the thumbnails and perusing the gallery.
