English fashion label Vivienne Westwood, now under the Creative Direction of Andreas Kronthaler, has launched its newest eyewear collection called 'Sun.'
The new capsule leverages Westwood's signature designs codes and visual motifs while still delivering a versatile range of styles that draw inspiration from the past, present, and future. For example, the collection features several distinctly contemporary frames with exaggerated proportions and a futuristic style, while also offering retro pairs inspired by '60s-era Italian glamour.
"Sunglasses should be the embodiment of personal theatre. They can make any look — they are an extension of your style. Of course, they have a purpose, but they should be fun, playful, joyous" said Kronthaler in a recent press statement, describing his approach to designing the new 'Sun' collection.
