Lucky Eyes
Los Angeles–based Lucky Brand Jeans, a division of Liz Claiborne Inc., struck a deal with REM Eyewear for the launch of Lucky Brand Spectables, rock ’n’ roll–inspired eyewear set to launch in January. The launch collection will include 15 styles for men and women, including sunglasses and ophthalmic frames. Additional styles will be added throughout the year. A preview collection has been launched at Lucky stores nationwide and at the company’s Web site (www.luckybandjeans.com). In March, the line will roll out to better department stores, independent specialty and optical retailers nationwide. REM produced eyewear under several labels, including Converse, Jones New York, Lauren Hutton, Barbie and Cosmopolitan. Its luxury division, Base Curve, is the licensee for Carolina Herrera and John Varvatos.
