Alfie Allen, younger brother of Lily, might have asked his big sister if he could borrow her sunnies – as the Red Wayfarer is a favourite with Lily. We think Alfie looks just as good! Get the look now

Ray Ban Wayfarer
The Ray Ban Wayfarer is probably the most iconic sunglass of all time. Designed in 1952 by optical designer Raymond Stegeman, they were seen as radical in design, with their plastic frames replacing the more traditional metal frames used up until that time.
Immortalised by Audrey Hepburn in the film Breakfast at Tiffany’s in the early 1960’s, the Ray-Ban Wayfarer has been in-favour with fashionistas ever since, and they are cited as the best-selling sunglasses of all time.
The Ray Ban Wayfarer has evolved many times throughout its 50 year history, and the Ray Ban Wayfarer range today is wide, with a range of colours and sizes. Manufactured in Italy by Luxottica, the original Ray-Ban Wayfarer RB2140 is the style that most people will be familiar with – probably having owned a pair in the eighties and wishing they had kept them!
