Hout Couture launch a Wilde success

Wilde Fruit Juice was proud to provide an unlimited supply of Wilde goodness at the Hout Couture launch last week - where fashion meets flavour.

Just over a year ago, a duo from UCT created something spectacular - wooden sunglasses.  The founders, Christopher Elliot and his business partner Craig Cameron-Mackintosh, were given a project to create a sustainable fashion accessory - they came up with Hout Couture wooden sunglasses.  The brand has since been catapulted into success.

The launch of the new Hout Couture Ranges was held at the up and coming rooftop bar Tjing Tjing on Longmarket street in Cape Town.  At the Launch, Hout Couture revealed 5 new pairs of highly fashionable wooden sunglasses.  The sunglasses come with spring loaded hinges, Carl Zeiss UV protected lenses and are engineered from the off cuts of high quality wood.
