Jodie Comer's Ray-Ban RB3548 Hexagonal moment at Big Swiss Photocall

The photocall for the HBO series Big Swiss in spring 2025 was a comparatively intimate curtain-raiser for one of the year's most unusual productions, and Jodie Comer, cast in the title role, seized the chance for an appearance as layered as the series itself. Based on Jen Beagin's cult novel of the same name, Big Swiss tells the story of a transcriber in the sleepy town of Hudson, New York, who types up the therapy sessions of a sex therapist and falls for one of his patients, a tall, taciturn Swiss woman known only as "Big Swiss." The pairing of Comer with her co-star Kathryn Hahn promised a mix of dark humour, queer themes and the uncompromising character study typical of HBO. For the photocall, held outdoors against a rustic brick backdrop in Hudson itself, Comer chose an ensemble that captured the series' rural aesthetic while channelling urban chic: an oversized khaki Loewe bomber jacket over a plain white T-shirt, worn with high-waisted, faded jeans and sturdy hiking boots. The Ray-Ban RB3548 Hexagonal, with its unusual six-sided gold frame, was the centrepiece of the look. Its geometric form, evoking the seventies style of music icons like John Lennon and Janis Joplin, lent the outdoor setting an unexpected touch of glamour and underlined Comer's knack for creating cinematic images even at a daylight photocall. The assembled press got not only a first glimpse of the series' visual world, directed by the celebrated Marielle Heller, but also of the chemistry between Comer and Hahn, who hinted at their characters' surreal dynamic in short, improvised exchanges. In interviews Comer spoke about the appeal of playing a figure who deliberately withholds herself and whose inner life reveals itself only slowly. The hexagonal frames she wore for nearly the entire photocall were promptly declared the accessory of the day by fashion bloggers, proof that Comer's influence on fashion is now as unmissable as her acting range.
