CARLA COLOUR
Earth-conscious colorful eyewear
Carla Colour is an independent eyewear brand dedicated to sustainable modern design. Balancing original and refined forms with superior functionality, it embodies true luxury. The brand is centered on the belief that sunglasses can transform how people feel as they move through their day. Carla Colour offers an elegant and colorful lens to view the world of style.
Founded in 2014 by Carla Robertson in New York City, the brand launched its iconic LIND style, which remains at the heart of each collection. The playful, geometric LIND has attracted a cult following of collectors worldwide. Carla’s fusion of vintage style and futuristic fun is expressed in every silhouette she creates. Her distinctive concepts and original approach to design inspire confidence, elegance, and relaxed self-expression.
Carla Colour has collaborated with notable creative partners, including Mona Kowalska (A Détacher), Lana Jay Lackey (Sedition Magazine), and Rachel Comey.
Carla Colour is guided by sustainability at every step of the design and production process. Limited edition collections are developed with earth-conscious materials, balancing creativity with responsibility. Exceptional craftsmanship and timeless design ensure glasses can be worn for many years, not just a single season. Carla Colour is an intentionally slow brand, rejecting the devastating cycle of fast fashion.
Carla Colour exclusively uses earth-conscious & recycled acetates. These improved formulas use plant-based ingredients from renewable sources & Eastman’s revolutionary molecular recycling technology to create the ultimate expression of sustainability in acetate eyewear. Sun lenses are made of bio nylon, reducing the carbon footprint by 50% compared to standard CR39 & nylon lenses.
Eyewear cases are crafted from the world’s first highly sustainable and environmentally friendly cactus leather. The cleaning cloth is made from 70% recycled PET & 30% recycled net, resulting in a 100% recycled material. The cardboard box is FSC certified & all colored paper is CO2 neutral & certified Cradle to Cradle Silver.
Connecting with people and honoring their individuality is at the core of Carla Colour. The brand is present at artisan markets and shows across the USA. Founder Carla Robertson believes this face-to-face relationship is integral to the brand. She loves the opportunity to help people find their future self through colorful, creative expression in eyewear.
