QUAY and SZA announce “Sides of SZA”

Global eyewear brand QUAY has partnered up with musician SZA to create the “Sides of SZA” exclusive edit for their  spring collection. The campaign stars the 4x Grammy winning musician in eight unique frames that truly reflect her aesthetic. From bold colors to over sized frames and statement pieces, SZA’s influence is written all over the release.

The musician reveled that the collaboration is not only about style but also about empowering fans to embrace their unique identities. “Self-expression is in our nature—I hope fans feel empowered to make their own rules and find styles that resonate with all the different sides of them,” said SZA.

In the world of music and fashion, few names carry the weight and influence of SZA. Known for her soulful voice, distinctive style, and empowering lyrics, SZA has become an icon for self-expression and individuality. Now, in a highly anticipated collaboration with eye-wear brand QUAY, she’s bringing her unique flair to a new collection of sunglasses aptly named “Sides of SZA.”

The collection features eight distinct sunglass styles, each capturing the dynamic energy and personality of the acclaimed artist. From bold color pops to oversized frames and statement designs, the Sides of SZA collection is a show-stopping edit that reflects SZA’s multifaceted identity.

SZA’s partnership with QUAY is a natural fit, as both embody a spirit of originality and self-assurance.

“When I think of QUAY, I think confident, playful, and stylish,” says SZA. “This edit has been an incredible opportunity to partner on. Self-expression is in our nature—I hope fans feel empowered to make their own rules and find styles that resonate with all the different sides of them.”

The Sides of SZA collection isn’t just about fashion—it’s about confidence and individuality. Designed to inspire, each pair of sunglasses offers on-trend silhouettes for any moment or mood. As fans gear up to enjoy SZA’s performances at summer festivals around the world, these sunglasses serve as the ultimate accessory for self-expression.

Standout pieces in the collection include TTYL, a Y2K-inspired rimless style with an apricot tinted lens, and SZA’s personal favorite, ON SET, a studded, oversized, wraparound shade featuring a brushed gold frame and gradient lens.

For QUAY, the partnership with SZA is a celebration of their deep-rooted connection to music and self-expression.
