LEVEL 02 - RETRO-TOWN
Made to frame the looks of gamepad legends, the second release of the successful ZAYN x ARNETTE collab takes the artist’s creative vision into a new dimension. Set somewhere between Utopia and the future, in this edition ZAYN explores his passion for old-school video games, playing out the second level of this game-within-a-game through the colorful lens of four hyped eyewear styles.
“I think the RETRO-TOWN looks are cool,” states ZAYN. “I’ve always been into gaming, so I was very interested in putting those design elements and aesthetics into this collection drop with ARNETTE. I like the look of the DAKEN, it’s a mix of modern with an old-school vibe.”
Named after legendary characters from epic graphic novels and cult movies, these statement shapes and gender-neutral profiles take us tripping through an alternative reality with synth-pop shades that see beyond the hype. Plus, with sustainable bio-acetates and bio-lenses in the mix, they offer win-win style for environmentally conscious trendsetters. With a note of 90’s nostalgia and loads of contemporary attitude, the campaign is just as fun, positive, and unexpected as the frames themselves.
Heading down a sunset boulevard towards the neon lights of his multi-screen game room, ZAYN transforms vaporwave visuals and graffiti art into brand new looks. With glitch-pixel color blocks and lumo layers tuning up the design of his custom frames, graphic Z lens or frame logos, ZAYN x ARNETTE temples and dedicated packaging give this collection its exclusive identity. ZAYN X ARNETTE Level 02 is heading to Retro-Town –Are you ready to play?
