The bold are the ones who can pull off replicating the iconic singer’s distinctive shades. The black cat-eye glasses serve as an icon for Egypt’s musical legacy, punctuating each performance Umm Kalthoum has soulfully given.A

‏Imaan Hamman, an Egyptian-Moroccan-Dutch supermodel who worked with the French eyewear company Port Tanger on a two-piece collection, reaffirms that idea. Hamman identifies Umm Kalthoum and her mother as the two key individuals who have inspired her, expressing her love and appreciation for both of them. The “Umm” cat-eye frame and the “M’Barka” (which translates to “congratulations”) frame from the 1970s pay respect to the strong women who influenced Hammam’s upbringing.
