On June 22, 2018, Johnny Depp got people talking at The Hollywood Vampires’ performance at the Hellfest metal music festival in Clisson, western France, for his unmistakable style statement rather than just his electrifying performance in a roaring sea of fans and the dark. Depp turned up to the gig wearing the Mistral White Tricolor sunglasses by Alchemy Specs, perfectly fitting, elegant, rocking it out with slick high fashion panache. The bright, tri-toned frames played well in the roiling sea of fans and the dark, moody atmosphere of one of Europe’s biggest metal festivals, and their bright rebellion played as well as possible in such a setting.

Depp’s Mistral sunglasses were more than a fashion choice; they were a bold punctuation on top of his iconic stage persona. The shades finished the ensemble from back to front with his tousled hair, the way it layered with his signature swagger, and his signature jewelry. This isn’t just a pretty accessory; these are built to take the wildest of guitar solos, and the full-rim acetate construction gives them enough classic luster to add a dose of vintage charisma. The Mistrals, whether with his eyes shut from the blazing stage lights or as a way to bring a splash of color to his all black outfit, were a power move.

Alchemy Specs doesn’t half cock things up, and neither does Johnny Depp. The White Tricolor version with its color block finish is unexpected, modern, loud, unapologetic with it’s energy. Few could captain such a striking combo with the casual cool Depp possesses. It’s not just eyewear—it’s attitude. Cracks clean when you’re standing in front of tens of thousands; shredding with Alice Cooper and Joe Perry, you need gear that meets the moment.
