A wardrobe, a thousand sunglasses. It’s not an exaggerated relationship: we all love sunglasses, we could never do without them, and with each new collection, we search for the model we don’t yet have, the style we still lack, and the designer sunglasses we’ve always dreamt of.
But with sunglasses, there’s little space for joking around: besides style, we seek quality – after all, they protect our eyes – durability (because the right models never really go out of fashion), and that extra touch that makes a face simply perfect with sunglasses.
A return that brings with it the timeless elegance of models made famous by divas like Sophia Loren, who defined an era of glamour and sophistication with her bold and sophisticated sunglasses.
This homage, clearly reinterpreted in the unique and modern canons of Vivienne Westwood, also includes a commitment to a more sustainable future.
Vivienne Westwood, always a pioneer for more ethical fashion that is attentive to the planet and animals, has incorporated the use of recycled materials into this collection as well. The frames are made from recycled and biodegradable materials, without compromising on quality, durability, or aesthetic impact.
Each piece in the collection, continuing and confirming a long tradition of Vivienne Westwood in fashion, features the unmistakable rebellious touch of the designer, once again combined with modern, avant-garde design and sustainable production.
Among the most iconic models of the 2024 collection, we find the return of large geometric shapes, an homage to the ’70s, without becoming a tired reproduction of what has already been seen. Oversized, square, or round sunglasses with gradient or coloured lenses that adapt to any face shape, enriched with modern details that enhance the forms and dimensions that have made fashion history.
There is also ample space for cat-eye frames, recalling the unmistakable style of Audrey Hepburn, a symbol of timeless elegance and incredibly modern despite the decades that separate us from her. Frames with slender lines and slightly upward extensions that add a touch of incredible femininity to any type of look.
The colour palette of the collection is equally bold, once again in the full style that has made Vivienne Westwood a constant presence at the top of the fashion hierarchy: from classic tones like black and tortoiseshell, to bolder colours like red, electric blue, and emerald green, reflecting much of the palette that has characterised Vivienne Westwood’s entire fashion collection.
Vivienne Westwood wouldn’t be Vivienne Westwood without an eye for practicality. The collection also includes models specifically designed for special lenses, which can be incorporated even into the most particular models, allowing everyone to enjoy the luxury of a designer pair of sunglasses.
2024 is the year that confirms the collaboration between the world of fashion, beauty, and attention to practicality, durability, and environmental sustainability. A perfect combination represented by Vivienne Westwood’s latest collection.
It has never been easier to be fashionable and respect the planet at the same time. With Vivienne Westwood sunglasses, we can do both without compromise. Because true elegance is also the ability to make conscious and responsible choices. And with this collection, Vivienne Westwood once again shows us that fashion can truly make a difference.
