Cillian Murphy marked the premiere of Peaky Blinders’ sixth season in a pair of Ray-Ban RB2140 Wayfarer sunglasses, a fittingly sharp choice for the man who plays Tommy Shelby. The Wayfarer’s bold, angular silhouette and dense acetate build echo the hard-edged, period-inflected world of the Birmingham gangster drama, where Shelby’s flat cap and razor-blade intensity became defining images of modern television. Off screen, the frame gives Murphy the same cool, guarded presence, its dark lenses reinforcing the understated menace he brings to the role. The show’s final season drew to a close one of the most acclaimed British dramas in years, and Murphy’s red-carpet look kept the mood brooding and precise. The Wayfarer’s rock-and-roll lineage adds a layer of timelessness, a reminder that the character’s influence extends far beyond the screen. It was a restrained, deliberate choice, exactly the kind of quiet authority Murphy carries so effortlessly, and a fitting final bow for one of television’s most magnetic characters.
The Ray-Ban Wayfarer RB2140 is one of the most iconic sunglasses models, crafted from durable acetate and defined by its distinctive trapezoidal shape. First introduced in the 1950s, it features bold lines and a slightly tilted front for a unique visual identity. Typically available with G-15, gradient, or polarized lenses, it provides reliable visual clarity and sun protection. The structured frame ensures a secure and comfortable fit for everyday wear.
