FACE À FACE

A 2025 Silmo d’Or winner, the graphic façade of the Flare 1 commands a second look as hypnotic etched lines shift directions in a translucent foundation. Thick temples preserve the architectural discipline, while a warm gradient lens tempers rebellion with elegance.

LOEWE

Oversized geometry pushes past the usual corners and contours on the LW40194I. A double slab acetate gives the bridge a carved like architecture to create proportions that are assertive yet impeccably balanced. Thick temples finish it with a monolithic presence.

PANAME

The Bordeaux-rimmed octagonal Camille is embraced in a polished gold chassis, delivering a vintage-coded combination that reads couture, not “cute.” Sophistication crafted with artisanal French refinement scaled for children, equally compelling for petite adult faces.

BRUNELLO CUCINELLI

Ovals stage their refined return, a silhouette that trades bravado for chic composure. Rendered in ultra-light titanium, a low-profile double bridge bisects a floating acetate decor feature, mirrored on each temple. Soft apricot-rose lenses elevate frames that are elegance expressed with impeccable restraint.

BALENCIAGA

Because one pair of sunglasses is never enough, Balenciaga doubles it, stacking a second detachable front over the SUPERBUSY’s already sculptural acetate chassis. Secured by screws and snaps, these are two frames colliding to create a silhouette with a louder shadow of itself.

NINA MUR

A piece of art more than eyewear, the Luminiers offers a familiar round shape, cut up and reassembled, to create couture in Memphis-meets-Bauhaus geometry. A carved depth that can only be achieved through the brand’s one-of-a-kind laminated wood punctuated with graphic accents. It isn’t built for blending in, it’s built to push the boundaries of wearable art.

L.A. EYEWORKS

A bold bloom in acetate, the petal-cut silhouette of the Poppy delivers softness and brightness reflective of the creative spirits who imagined this kind of exuberant eyewear into existence. Gai and Barbara’s legacy resides in designs like this, where color feels like a form of optimism for wearers and spectators alike.

TIWI

A sculptural oval with cinema-grade presence, the exaggerated frame volume of the LeClub Paola steals the spotlight with its free-spirited confidence inspired by 80s French film culture. Wide, weighty, and unapologetically retro in proportion.
