Krewe comes from New Orleans, as does its founder, creative entrepreneur Stirling Barrett. His inspiration for establishing the brand, which has only been around since 2013, was the vision of New Orleans as a prosperous centre of culture.
Through the unique and stylish design of his sunglasses and correctively glasses, the brand wants to spread New Orleans culture and celebrate its individual styles.
Modern iconic frames and creative, often colourful lenses quickly became popular among many people, including celebrities, allowing the brand to fulfil its vision. City streets are filling up with modern luxury style that celebrates New Orleans.
The individual series of luxury glasses bear the names of famous architectural monuments of the city or prominent individuals associated with the city. For instance, the St. Louis series harks back to the famous iron bridge inspired by the iconic balconies lining the streets of the French Quartier. The Monroe series is a throw-back to the famous icon of the 1950’s, who also made a mark on the history of the American city of New Orleans. The glasses in this series feature very striking feminine frames with a luxury cat-eye shape.
Which celebrities swear by the Krewe brand? For starters, famous models like Gigi Hadid, Kendall Jenner, Adriana Lima and Cara Delevingne. Men who love this modern and trendy style include Jimmy Buttler from the Chicago Bulls All Stars, English singer and songwriter Zayn or Dutch actor, singer and lyricist Michiel Huisman.
