Whether you’re on a covert mission or a coffee run, sometimes you just don’t want to see or be seen. And as every Hollywood starlet on her way to rehab knows, the way to hide in public is behind a pair of big, dark sunglasses — which are not hard to find this season. Banana Republic has expanded its collection of sunglasses, which includes styles that offer full coverage. For stylish secrecy, the fashion brands Proenza Schouler and Thakoon have both launched debut collections, available at Ilori. The eyewear brand Modo has entered the retail fray with a new shop in SoHo that carries its own label, as well as Derek Lam, 3.1 Phillip Lim, and Fabien Baron.
