From The Band of Outsiders look book to Beyonce’s rockin’ street style, Illesteva’s stylish specs are popping up everywhere (and the sun isn’t the sole reason for their perpetual presence). The young brand’s new model, the Albert frames, which are charmingly inspired by the 1970’s French comedy “La Cage aux Folles,” are surely to maintain the popularity their sibling frames induced.

This past Saturday, Illesteva presented their Fall/Winter 2011 eyewear collection at MAC/MILK from 7pm to 8pm. A sixteen piece orchestra perfomed, with attendees including Jared Sullivan, Malina Joseph, Masha Orlov, Karin Nelson, Sabrina Marshall and Martin Cohn.
