Marni sunglasses
23rd January 2012 I have come across the Spring/Summer sunglasses collection by Italian brand Marni this weekend, a brand that a few opticians have mentioned to me as having a special fondness for interesting interpretations in their sunwear. For the coming season, the range features big, round glasses in transparent acetate, and some elongated shapes including a modified aviator with a flat top. I am pleased to see interesting, rich colours such as a fresh orange and feminine lilac, some matt classics – the grey is on-trend – and tortoise-inspired pattern; a real favourite is the cool black and pistachio combination which I’ve got my eye on. I love the detail in the catwalk pictures where the colour and shine of the acetate sunglasses work seamlessly in combination with big earrings in concentric, multi-coloured shapes and deco-inspired resin bracelets. Available at Marni, Sloane Street, London, SW1. Go to www.marni.com for online shopping and find their very chic quarterly online magazine at www.marni-anticamera.com/eng. In Paris, Marni sunglasses are available at Les Plus Belles Lunettes du Monde (www.lesplusbelleslunettesdumonde.com). CN
