Moo Piyasombatkul: Candy Eyes

admin — Mon, 17 Jun 2013 10:33:19 +0000

No age was richer in decorative forms as the Baroque. Between shells and strapwork, the favorite ornament in architecture and décor were especially the Rocaille. We like the sunglasses with pomp of a young designer named Moo Piyasombatkul. The candy eyes collection is inspired by the pompous era with its shell-like decorations. Available via sunglasscurator.com and openingceremony.us. You like?

admin — Fri, 07 Jun 2013 10:41:52 +0000

Flip-up cool!
This goes out to my former classmate Jerry, who used to wear flip-up glasses when we were in high school together. I owe you an apology: We gave you hard time, saying your glasses remind us of a toilet seat, while you insisted on the ingenious practicality of the whole thing. And you were right! Today, you’d be one of the coolest cats in the streets with these things. As we speak, eyewear companies are still catching up to what could be the next big trend. Just take the PH 3075 from the Polo Ralph Lauren Automotive Special Edition: It features a light metal frame with prescription lenses fitted into the interior, covered by sun lenses that flip-up in the style of the sun-visor in a car – adjustable to any kind of weather and stylistic preference. With its wood-effect temples and sleek metal lines, these aviator frames are living proof that you can be practical, and look tremendously cool all at the same time.

Persol: Reflex Edition

admin — Tue, 28 May 2013 10:08:03 +0000

Persol pays tribute to the world of photography with a new collection. The camera has captured as the guardian of the beauty a century-long timeless images and memories for generations.

Cazal – Tribute to Cari Zalloni

admin — Mon, 27 May 2013 14:38:13 +0000

In honor of its recently deceased creative mastermind, Cari Zalloni, legendary eyewear brand Cazal is releasing a limited edition rework of their most iconic model – the 607. No other style in Cazal’s storied line-up would have been better suited than this humongous bulk of acetate frame, also known as the “Run DMC Glasses.” The 607 shaped the style of an entire generation. Ever since the late 1970s, the 607 has been as much of a style icon than the currently resurgent Wayfarer frames.

The first impression: Wow, what a heavy-hitter! A blend of the familiar, heavy-weight quality materials with a rather untypical (at least for Cazal) matte black finish, combined with metal details on both sides, coated in black. A pair of production samples is sitting right in front of me on my desk, and I hardly dare to pick them up – true works of art, simple, massive, heavy, real. Touching the surfaces with your hand or face is a haptic experience, while the small golden brand icons add just the right amount of accents to the mix. The technically elaborate engravings are in-line with the overall colorways, completing the overall impression.

Honestly, I’m not the biggest fan of the 607, mostly because it is rather slim and the saddle shaped for smaller noses. But at the same time, this re-release lives up to its legacy and will make a big impression among collectors: An authentic special release of an iconic eyewear style, in honor of the iconic designer who created it more than 30 years ago.

Make no mistake: This pair of glasses is no mere accessory for sunny days, but a memorial stone; a monument crafted from acetate. With 999 pieces of this honorary tribute, Cari Zalloni and his work are destined to live on forever.

Andy Wolf – One Love

admin — Mon, 27 May 2013 13:44:43 +0000

“One love, one heart, let’s get together and feel alright” …no matter where.
With this infamous quote, Andy Wolf sums up pretty much the entire identity of this photo series. In order to provide the optimal setting for showcasing the new “One Love” collection by the Austrian label founded in 2006, head designer Katharina Plattner took the trip to the small spa town of Bad Aussee. In the spirit of our time, the images present outstanding people and stylistics with a natural, unvarnished aesthetic.
But what could attract an equally young and cosmopolitan eyewear label such as Andy Wolf into this idyllic, natural setting? That’s easy. It’s in the symbiotic combination of calm, beauty and inspiration. And maybe also a certain rootedness in their home culture. However, here are some charismatic personalities showing off the “One Love” collection’s current eyewear styles in an appealing mix between tradition and metropolitan chic.

Cutting edge – we like it a lot.

LINDBERG

admin — Mon, 27 May 2013 10:37:24 +0000

LINDBERG is a unique mindset that has revolutionised the international eyewear business – all the way from design, materials and manufacture to sales, distribution and service.
The eyewear-label is an idea about how to do things. Either do them exceptionally well – or not at all.

Several international design awards already bear witness to the success of LINDBERGs efforts – as do distinctive LINDBERG frames on the noses of the discerning, and whenever a design statement needs to be made.

LINDBERG insists on no-compromise excellence in every detail, every process, each material and every surface. And the company achieves this by doing everything themselves – inventing new processes, re-engineering key components and materials, and improving existing machinery, if that’s what it takes.

LINDBERG starts with what’s best – not what’s standard practice. So no mass production or mindless automation here. Every frame and component is made to order at the unique do-everything facility in Denmark, amid a heady mix of modern technology, traditional craftsmanship and design magic that means they constantly reconsider and improve every detail and every process – again and again.
Everything LINDBERG does is steeped in the Scandinavian design tradition of discreet, classic elegance and carefully considered simplicity.
