Ku-Tua Africa collection

Ku-Tua is the name of Rye&Lye's optical eyewear line for women inspired by the colours and sunsets of Africa.

Immagine Eyewear has collaborated with a biologist called Alessandra Soresina, who has been living in Africa for years, to create the earthy collection.

Ku-Tua, meaning relaxation in Swahili, mixes retro taste with a spirit of adventure.

Colours are natural, inspired by ivory, bone, worn wood, seared plants and landscapes.

Model Twiga is pictured above. Swala is an all-acetate frame with retro eyes, a high-gloss finish in graduated black and white with characteristic leopard print on the inner sides.
