As total solar eclipse fever sweeps the nation, the anticipation of witnessing this awe-inspiring astronomical event peaks. On April 8th, a happy cosmic coincidence will align the sun and moon to appear the same size, causing the 2024 total eclipse, also known as the Great American Eclipse as it will pass through much of the US captivating viewers. While NASA advises special solar viewer eclipse glasses for safe viewing, on 'Planet Fashion,' we're exploring the eclipse's transformative power through another lens—eyewear. And so is the rest of the world, searches for the eyewear brand Warby Parker are currently skyrocketing.

To better discover how sunglasses wield the power to define your style and identity and allow you to put your unique stamp on every look, meet two eye-wear obsessives whose love of sunglasses inspired the creation of the beautiful magazine-style fashion art photography book "Spectacle". An homage to eyewear, New York-based fashion photographers Anna Palma and Guy Aroch, partners in life and collaborators in fashion conceived "Spectacle", as a passion project. Their vision? To celebrate eyewear and explore the deeper meaning the glasses we wear hold for us.
