The Emanuel Ungaro Sun Collection

The latest Emanuel Ungaro glasses collection proposes a delicate alliance of floral prints and polka dots. The accessory has followed the example of the ready to wear line with its startling combinations.

The plastic rims surrounding the lens are strass incrusted at times, and are associated with the chiselled metal of some of the frames. The style advocates a sense of timelessness: the '50s and 60's meet the here and now with sense of humour.

The masculine rims conjure up memories of the Dolce Vita, where men were dressed in strict suits and black ties. The lady glasses are disguised as a more mischievous heroine, who is skimming across the dark maze of a Hitchcock film or playing at being a one night rock-star. Moulded plastic renders the oval elegant and the glasses have the allure of modern day masks. Emanuel Ungaro glasses are by Luxottica.
