Behind the Scenes: Spring 2013 Eyewear
Shot at a friend of a friend’s house just a stones throw from our Abbot Kinney Flagship store, our creative team produced TOMS Eyewear looks that feature friends hanging out, having fun, and looking good in the newest shades.
The photographer puts down the camera and picks up the guitar to teach Joe a few cords-ya know, to keep it authentic. Photographers assistant captures video.
Shot list; models being put to work (who said this stuff was easy?)
The owners of the house graciously let us borrow their car; it didn’t start at first, and our model’s stick shift skills were shaky, but eventually they disappeared down the street- while we held our breath they would return.
The ladies (in the Gigi and the Sandela) take a minute to give us their best ‘blue steel’.

Teaching teachers about vision
With the support of TOMS Eyewear and our lead Sight Giving Partner, Seva Foundation, the Lumbini Eye Institute in Nepal has been showing local teachers how to screen for potential eye issues. Often educators are the first to notice vision problems when kids have difficulty seeing the blackboard. Now, nearly 200 teachers can properly diagnosis visual impairments and refer a child to a local eye center for treatment — as part of Lumbini’s efforts to create long-term, self-sustaining treatment programs.
