Fresh from trolling the internet over those James Bond rumours, Idris Elba has provided a timely reminder of his style credentials with some classic eyewear action.

At the premiere of his directorial debut Yardie, Elba proved why the Wayfarer is still the king of all the sunglasses in the land. Classic, wearable and designed to suit a number of different head shapes, this stateside shape is defined by a distinct trapezoidal frame first developed by Ray-Ban.
