Yuan's family background in the sunglass industry informs the brand's commitment to quality, which is balanced with an accessible, contemporary-minded approach. The brand's aesthetic is heavily influenced by '90s and early 2000s nostalgia, particularly R&B and pop music culture, resulting in unique forms and striking color palettes.
