Shayne Oliver and Ottolinger Debut 'OTTONYMOUS'
'OTTONYMOUS' is a new and ongoing collaboration with Ottolinger and Shayne Oliver, which debuted at Ottolinger’s S/S 25 womenswear collection. Their first collaboration sees coloured visors, which feature four shades drawn from Ottolinger’s eclectic colour palette, and come in the form of two shapes. The distinct shapes of the futuristic shades pull from Oliver's designs. Reminiscent of the larger-than-life jaws of a shark, the capsule collaboration fit effortlessly within both of the Berlin brands' worlds.
The name, a play on the word ‘autonomous’ — defined as a person acting without the influence of others — is a clever take on the two brands' ethos, creating worlds all of their own, their strong individuality comes together in a unique way. With the latest Anonymous Club S/S 25 collection, a venture of the Shayne Oliver Group, Oliver continues to reject the fashion industry paving his own methods of design, production and showcasing.
Ottolinger, who just saw the release of their A/W 24 campaign featuring the two founders Cosmia Gadient and Christa Bösch in their own designs, is no stranger to intimate world building as well. Creating rebellious clothing that mixes dance culture, utility, and elegance, Ottolinger’s quiet yet potent mark elevates the collaboration with sophistication.
The eyewear, which is now available for pre-order on the Shayne Oliver Group website, will be the first of an ongoing partnership, sure to change the fashion game. Knowing where these two brands stand on innovation and individuality, we are excited to see where this collaboration leads to.
