Fashion frames: countdown to Christmas: top picks

Fashion frames for now: change your look!

For the festive season, eyewear, and not just apparel, has the power to lift moods and enhance unique style, particularly through colour and detail or a tasteful jewellery embellishment. Across the spectacle and sunglass collections, uplifting colours, sparkling gemstones or chic geometric shapes offer a chance to add a special flourish or a bold and audacious twist. Above: Debbie frame by Sara Shakeel x Linda Farrow – Holiday Season collection – a collaborative edition with artist Sara Shakeel. Sara loves glitter, sparkle and Swarovski crystal

Sunglass style Taraji by Vera Wang – a beautiful frame choice for the winter months or a warm holiday in the sun

Designer Vera Wang has modelled this frame herself, and its unusual and eye-catching, chic design is dramatic, bold yet also feminine. The frame is available in sophisticated finishes of classic black or tortoise and makes an ideal choice for winter sun with the light tinted lens hue. www.kenmarkeyewear.com

Exuberant and fun: Jazzy by Lafont Paris

The panto model Jazzy by Lafont Paris has a strong, thick, charismatic acetate rim and comes in bright tones of red with a gradient effect, green, blue and grey (above) with red. The frame has a wonderful aesthetic for dressing up but is equally adapted to every day wear with plenty of panache. www.lafont.com

AM 024 Bowie – AM Eyewear – fine acetate + gold detailing

Am Eyewear’s Bowie frame (AM 024) is part of the excellent Kochi Collection by Simon Ponnusamy, who was inspired by a personal trip he made through India in early 2020 – pre pandemic. Distinctly avantgarde, the line offers rich colour, texture, angles and sophisticated facets derived from the exciting colours of the Kochi Carnival (Kerala). Find out more: www.ameyewear.com

The Hollywood by Struktur from France – colour ‘grenade’ to light up the face

At the French artisan label Struktur, the Hollywood is a graphic design combining the structured design with bold colours. Red is seasonal and always wearable and flattering for many skin tones – the frame is also available in statement tones of ‘orange velvet’, ‘blue lagoon’ and ‘blue wave’, with exceptional multi coloured patterning to stand out from the crowd. www.struktur-eyewear.fr
