KREWE: Artistically Crafted, Culturally Inspired

New Orleans has always been a booming hub of all that is big, bright, colorful, and fun. Deep with history, The Big Easy has given us Mardi Gras, French Quarter, Cajun cuisine, and a lifestyle that’s uniquely theirs.

And now there’s something “krewel” coming this way, taking the fashion industry by storm. Presenting KREWE du optic, a brand born and bred out of the history and culture of New Orleans. Artist and New Orleans native Stirling Barrett had a vision of bringing the art and culture of the city to life. In 2013, he saw that dream come true in KREWE du optic, a unique line of sunglasses that tells the story of New Orleans in each style.

At only 25, Barrett combines his youthful spirit with the Big Easy history to create designs that are revered by fashion seekers of all ages. He didn’t want KREWE to be just another sunglasses brand. It had to represent the rhythmic spirit of the city and its colorful residents.

We don’t make just another pair of glasses. We make a functional work of art that represents an honest connection between you and the artist who designed them.

Barrett

Naming each style after a different part of the city, Barrett is telling a story through each creation. The beautiful architecture of the Lower Garden District (LGD) is mirrored in the bohemian browline design of the LGD style. The St. Louis style comes from the French Quarter’s famous 1800’s cast iron balconies. It goes on and on. Timeless design and fine craftsmanship make each pair one that’s sure to be talked about for years to come. From the scratch-resistant lenses to the Italian Mazzucchelli Zyle acetate and the durable 5-barrel hinges, KREWE sunglasses are built to stand the test of time.

KREWE du optic. It’s the next big thing.
