Lindberg Precious

12th September 2011 Continuing with our luxury frame theme, we are pleased to present this stunning new design from the Lindberg Precious collection. Fine, smooth horn and lightweight titanium merge in a contemporary shape, exquisitely crafted. The pure simplicity and flow of the frame expresses both a subtle and a strong statement simultaneously. The Danish based company has amassed international fans for their elegant designs these past 40 years, and regal patronage in their homeland. In 2009, Queen Margrethe II bestowed a Royal Warrant to Lindberg. For further information: www.lindberg.com JG

Limited Edition LE41176

1st September 2011

TD Tom Davies

9th September 2011 Just in on my desk, these elegant sunglasses are as beautiful on the inside as on the outside! With Davies’ amazing technical skills, this design has the appearance of being “reversed” – as if the inside has been transformed onto the frame front. The above design is one of an exciting, bespoke Limited Edition collection in Double Bloc Titanium – an original and beautiful concept that illustrates the artistry of Tom Davies. The frames, for men and women, were originally designed for royalty. I particularly like the classy sculptured frame front, with its gentle flow. Further information at www.tdtomdavies.com JG

Luxury: 14305D Les Annees 80 Series A

1st September 2011

Christian Roth

2nd September 2011 This month we are featuring luxury frames – eyewear designs in exquisite materials and sometimes, with beautiful jewels. Luxury and glamour are benchmarks of the eyewear collections by Christian Roth and Eric Dommage. They possess a genuine feel and flair for elegant shapes, in haute couture materials, masterfully crafted. “The diamonds are definitely real”, says Roth, of the sophisticated frame (above) in hand-made silky black acetate. The diamonds are set in sterling silver on the gently curved frame front. Diamonds – and this frame – are forever! www.christian-roth.com JG

Vesoul

1st September 2011

Dita

Model Vesoul by US brand Dita comes in this incredible colour called “blue swirl crystal” with dark grey gradient lenses. It’s got the hue of the Mediterranean and fits beautifully with our blue theme of the Summer which seems to continue into the Autumn collections. Handcrafted in Japan, the model is typical of Dita’s sunglass styles, which combine an equal helping of style and quality construction. This is a trendy shape this season and one I recommend strongly to those of you wanting a fashion look for 2011/12, in optical or sunwear. Available direct from www.dita.com and also at the Eye Company in Wardour Street, London (www.eye-company.co.uk) retailing at £290. CN

Xaver

1st September 2011

Mykita & Bernhard Willhelm, The Mirrored Collection

This collaboration is into its third year, and the metal styles in the A/W 2011 Collection maks a brow-raising statement as is typical of this German-born fashion designer, whose gold aviator sunglasses shot to fame in 2009 when worn by Sarah Jessica Parker for Sex in the City. Since then the collection has a total of four models, Franz, Sepp (copper/mint above left) and Andreas (red/red flash above centre), and a new one, Xaver, top right in gold/gold flash. This is a 1980s design, with sharper contours that its predecessors. The frame’s dimensions mark another new aspect – measuring 14 mm these are the widest temples featured in the metal collection. As well as the colour combinations above, you will also find silver, matt black and pink, a top 2011/12 colour for fashionistas. CN
