Manufactured using the highest quality components and the most qualitative techniques, the top luxury sunglasses from Safilo eyewear collections are the result of the finest “Made in Italy” craftsmanship, presenting exquisite features and combining artisanal skills with new manufacturing technologies.
Excellent Craftsmanship
Oustanding quality and exquisite artisanship are expressed in the Dior Homme exquisite frames and sunglasses, as well as in the new Fendi sunglasses, celebrating the highest workmanship with subtle leather elements on the stainless steel frames.
Blending savoir-faire and cutting-edge technical solutions, the OXYDO collection brings to life exclusive styles enhanced by the contrast between organic lines and solid materials, with eccentric elements crafted with a 3D print technique: a new aesthetic approach combining know-how and experimentation.
Sun lenses are an integral part and compelling differentiator for Safilo’s most precious eyewear designs. Safilo’s continuous commitment to sun lens innovation, research and development has led to the creation of exclusively aesthetic lens designs combined with unique craftsmanship capabilities, as we can see in Dior Homme sunglasses featuring graphic lenses with a unique crumpled pattern.
Urban Streetwear
Carrera sunglasses and optical frames, for example, embody a contemporary feeling mixed with the heritage spirit of the brand. Polaroid collection, balancing functionality and emotion in a funny and playful way, presents new sunglasses ranging from rounded to square to rectangular shapes, emphasizing each design with vibrant color touches on the double bridge, in line with Polaroid‘s mission: to bring beauty to everyone’s face, whilst allowing for our differing tastes, styles and features. Fendi “Urban” sunglasses reflect the purest blend of metal and acetate, interpreted with a contemporary twist and audacious color details.
Tommy Hilfiger collection reflects a relaxed, sporty take on American classics with a playful fashion edge and a modern- day twist on the versatile unisex styles featuring clip-on sunglasses lenses and the contemporary acetate pilot styles.
Gender Neutral
The blurred line between male and female codes in fashion is reflected in the newest eyewear proposals, such as in the young and unisex proposals of Marc Jacobs sunglasses and optical frames, featuring distinctive details and metal trims.
The Signature eyewear collection from Carrera includes acetate and metal styles with a unisex contemporary feeling, featuring the new RED HD lenses to offer functional benefits to consumers in terms of upgrade the polarization benefits: their particular colour boasts a high-contrast and anti-reflection treatment, which allows colours to be seen in a much more vivid way thanks to a careful study on the spectrum curve. This particular colour filters the blue light to convey eye relaxation and ultimately prevent eye aging.
Also BOSS offers unisex shapes featuring the combination of innovative materials, such as cork and aluminium, while Polaroid styles feature easy-to-wear shapes featuring playful color combinations enhanced by the multicoated mirror effect of the polarized lenses for an even stronger effect. The newly launched havaianas sunglasses, with their colorful and vibrant personality, express all the fun and Brazilian mood bringing the spirit of summer with many colors and surprising combinations.
Classic Shapes
The new Safilo eyewear collections explore a variety of shapes, include:
- Retro-inspired rounded silhouettes with an essential design reinterpreted with an original twist – as seen in Fendi, BOSS and Givenchy proposals.
- Squared silhouettes evoke the 1960s or the 1980s revisited with modern touches, as in Pierre Cardin, Tommy Hilfiger and Smith proposals.
- The classic pilot and drop shape, timeless and unforgettable, is presented in bold acetate or ultra- lightweight metal, as in Carrera, Givenchy and BOSS proposals.
Natural Colours and Pop Lenses
Natural or spotted tones of Havana are the new classics for Spring/Summer 2017, as in Carrera, Smith and Dior Homme proposals.
Eighties-style mirrored and pop-colored lenses brighten up the new creations with glamorous mirror effects and vibrant, definite hues, such as in Carrera, Polaroid and Smith proposals.
