The citric orange tones are fresh, confident, powerful, extroverted and always vibrant for the complexion – it’s time to try a frame in your favourite orange hue…

A colour with a fascinating history, orange is a tone that attracts attention, associated with energy, fruit, nature and a certain power. Always mood-enhancing in eyewear this season, designers have explored its vibrancy and visibility in a spectrum of orange tones that are deliciously joyful, uplifting and bright. Above: The Kirk and Kirk colour palette always features a striking orange: pictured, model wears Percy in the Centena collection – www.kirkandkirk.com

Model Ornette by l.a.Eyeworks combines big frame shaping with compelling colours, of which the punchy orange tone ‘Persimmon’ perfectly reflects the natural brightness of the Japanese fruit. www.laeyeworks.com

From the Petite Collection at French label J.F. Rey, designed for smaller face shapes, the PA100 model combines metal/acetate, in a lively and colourful combination – the bright orange tone has a vibrant repeated pattern effect through the acetate material on front and temple ends. www.jfrey.fr

A rising French-made luxury label with a contemporary Parisian sensibility – new sunglass styles in the men’s collection revealed

Leimann Eyewear, a rising name in luxury frames, has created limited edition frames for the season, including a men’s selection of sunglasses that strike a note of elegance and modernity, for a very discerning man. Custom blending exclusive “noble” materials including fine-jewellery alloys which they say have an unexpected lightness and durability, the statement shapes for men range from oversized acetate to thin rimmed metals where much consideration is given to detail, colour subtleties and the matching gradient tones of the lens. Above: an example of a limited edition metal design by Leimann Eyewear, the LEIM V style has a rectangular eye shape which is softened with rounded corners; a hint of a more lavish luxury style is visible in the nose bridge design. The frame is made from one single piece of metal and has filigree engraved temples

Original and powerful in its design, the LEIM X11 frame has a large yet wearable square shape produced in a smart 8mm thick acetate material with a sturdy metal core and fitted with sun lenses created in a thermoplastic recyclable material with anti-reflective and hydrophobic treatment as well as 100% UVA/UVB protection.

About the brand: Created in 2020, Leimann Eyewear is an independent Luxury Eyewear brand producing limited edition, handmade frames for men and women in France from noble materials and alloys which have been researched to offer an unexpected lightness and durability. Each model is conceived by revisiting the iconic lines of high-class vintage eyewear and bringing them up to date with particular attention to detail. As part of French tradition and know-how, Leimann frames also aim to magnify the style and personality of the wearer. Photography above by @guillaume.malheiro.
