Salvatore Ferragamo
Eyewear collection

The new Eyewear collection is a wonderfully fresh restatement of everything that¡¯s creative and sophisticated in the House of Salvatore Ferragamo.
The creations include eighteen ladies models and four mens, as well as up-dates of four Sole models.
The style icons of the Florentine brand reassert themselves in a brilliant show of intriguing designs, striking details and prestige materials.

The Women¡¯s models indulge a preference for vivacious reds, sylvan green, wisteria and mother-of-pearl effect ivory in the acetate frames and Monel Alpacca in the metal ones.

The ever distinctive femininity of the Ferragamo Woman will be fatally attracted by the jewellery frames, with their uncluttered lines and hammered-effect temples adorned with rows of crystals.

The Gancino motif set with Swarowski crystals emanates an air of contemporary sophistication in the linear acetate frames of the FE 2591B model - coloured coral, aubergine, mother-of-pearl effect ivory or black; and also appears on the two thin metal temples in the breezy FE 1678 B model.

The Gancino motif is also an original way of joining frame and temples, as in the youthfully linear line of acetate models (FE 2593B), featuring big temples with a rhythmical pattern of Swarowski crystals.

Designed for a dynamic woman, these models have flex temples which are ideal for sport and an active life in general.

Drawing on Ferragamo printed silk designs, the African Print line¡¯s squared frames - and temples in some of the models ¨C feature an animalier print on a monochrome acetate ground, breathing the rich personality of a woman whose grit is graced with glamour.

The Intreccio model, on the other hand, is a tribute to another historic Salvatore Ferragamo creation.
The famous sandal, with its lightweight heel delicately patterned with a metallic thread, is the inspiration behind the strass-spattered metal band suavely embracing the bold temples of the acetate FE 2599B.

The mens models are full of zesty appeal and innovative details.
They all have the new metallic logo plate bearing the brand¡¯s signature, fruit of an discreetly elegant restyling - square and embossed.

The FE 2590 evokes ¡¯70s design and features a pattern of transparent lines on the acetate, which is either dark red, pearl grey, chestnut, or a warm slightly mother-of-pearled yellow.

The two metal models answer a call for lightness and comfort; the vertical knurling on the temples sets off the logo plate and puts a little zest in the design¡¯s basic sobriety.

Available from May on, in quality opticians.
