Driving in a cab late at night through the streets of LA with your sunglasses on. Sounds cool huh? Well maybe because it sounds kind of weird to have your sunglasses on in the middle of the night when it’s pitch dark. ‘Sunglasses at Night’ by Corey Hart was the theme song of the Gucci Eyewear Campaign 2017 – in which they took it very literal.
Gucci Eyewear Goes Back To The 80’s
The short opens with details of a black, old, classic car driving through the city at night (it looks like Los Angeles). A few seconds in you see Dutch model Ellen de Weer sitting in the back of the car in oversized sunglasses looking left to right at the people on the street. During the entire short, the camera shifts in and out of focus – as one would feel during a crazy night out. Check it out down below

When watching the full short – it seems kind of serious, but at the same time very extra. It’s the luxury car and the bold and eye-catching sunglasses that make it very unrealistic for most of us (cause I believe we don’t all hit up the club in old-timers and wearing Gucci sunglasses even though its pitch dark) – who does that really? Anyways, here we see these two models in the cab look very chic and put together in their outfits and the sunglasses – just being way too cool. Congrats Alessandro Michele, you did it once again – you have the eye for the aesthetics.
