What’s new in sunglasses? We checked out the upcoming 2014 season launches at Luxottica media showing, amongst the artworks, inside Auckland’s Gus Fisher Gallery.
You can buy Luxottica brands here in New Zealand at Sunglass Hut www.sunglasshut.co.nz and OPSM www.opsm.co.nz
Picture above left: Miu Miu model VMU 07M 2AF-1O1 which will be available at OPSM in February 2014.
Key trends included new fabrications on sunglass arms, such as velvet and leather strips giving the arms texture and a real point of difference. As always, traditional palettes such as tortoiseshell – my favourite – and the classic black were popular, but great to see the pops of colours and embellishment coming through strongly.
Below: Highlights from the Auckland launch. Beautiful shapes from Miumiu.
