Sven Götti Shares Style Suggestions for Men
1st January 2014 During the month of January, Eyestylist will feature innovative frames for men from specialist designers. Several creators discuss their ideas and concepts for this important men’s accessory. We start the series with Sven Götti of Götti Switzerland.
“Glasses are one of the few accessories that men can wear. Women can put on makeup to achieve another look. Glasses can release a total make over. The most important is to feel comfortable with glasses. If a man is wearing them every day they have to procure a good feeling. Glasses support the style of a man, and his character. Götti Switzerland designs explicit men’s collections with a very clear and masculine shape. We think it’s a must that everyone can identify himself with the style of his glasses. Apart from that fact, the glasses have to be perfect on the nose, and the size of the frame needs to be correct – it has to appear harmonious with the owner’s face. When it comes to colours, for men dark tones are mostly recommended, however, lighter skin types can play with colours. Havana and black will definitely suit men with dark hair. Colours have a strong symbolic effect, and say more than a thousand words – the colour of glasses says a lot about the character of a person. Is he brave? or confident? or likes to hide in the backseat? Last but not least,: Is there something like the “perfect face for glasses?” Yes. Just as there are certain types of people who can wear a hat easily. There is a frame for everyone. Sometimes it just takes a little more effort to find the perfect choice.” www.gotti.ch JG
