the season’s highlights and essential trends.

ROMAIN JOSTE,Blogger “De JeunesGens Modernes”

STEPHANE VERDINO,Fashion Designer

KIERA CHAPLIN,Actress

ROMAINThey are traditional andeccentric! They’re whateveryou’re in the mood for them to be: it’s a back to casual class.

STÉPHANEBack to basics! Those classicalshapes are back with a bangand look so stunning!

KIERAThese user-friendly classicsare just what I need: I canwear them with jeans or anevening dress.

ROMAINThey managed to make thempractical and look great: theaviator sunglasses have to belightweight, and that’s alsowhat makes them so dashing.

AdoptA CHIC LOOK

Adopt VINTAGE SPIRIT

STÉPHANEThe trousers rolled up overthe ankles and Richelieushoes… This autumn andwinter, sunglasses andlooks are totally retro.

KIERA I love the butterfly onesbecause they take me back to Hollywood’s glory days.The round ones take asharper sense of style: youhave to know how to wearthose.

A brand that sets the pace invariably knows how to reinvent itself. Lacoste and its

new artistic director Felipe Oliveira Baptista have turned the corner without

walking away from their heritage and the sunglasses collections are well worth a

look – fast!

Lacoste has been recasting the casual spiritwith its distinctive class since its inception.Much like the essential polo shirt, the newsunglasses collection is an array of modelsthat capture this designer’s core values: it isauthentic, bold and upbeat. The subtle details and bright colours add a twist to the classical shapes, and the season’s twospearheads are already must-haves.

Style and technicality are two of this Solaris-signed brand two features. Solaris

Heritage blends a retro aura and polarising glasses for unrivalled protection – so

all you have to do is pick the icon-inspired model that’s right for you.

The butterfly shapes captureGrace Kelly’s brand of glamour.The Jackie-Kennedy-styleoversized models and modernframes reminiscing PacoRabanne’s universe are twoother examples. The SolarisHeritage collection is steepedwith fashion highlights from thepast 50 years. Actor PatrickDempsey and top model EvaHerzigova have already startedusing these sunglasses with thedistinctive metal signature onthe arms.

THE NEW COLLECTION

Flawless vision any time of year, guaranteed. These glasses have filters to cut the flare from certain flat surfaces. Solaris is offeringa full collection featuringgraded polarising glasses.
