Missoni Eyewear 2007

Missoni's new collection produced by Allison confirms the vitality of the colors and goes further, in a recurrent play of mask models that conceal authentic gardens within.
But there is never a hint of pretension, it is eyewear that encompasses joy, but nonetheless affirms a precise, composed style.

So, secret gardens for models that pour out the vitality of the shiny injected solution, and which form the stem as though the cast were interwoven within.
And it is precisely within that they are able to speak of energy, of an all Italian, feminine cheerfulness made up of hundreds of vibrant, alternating pansies, in vivid shades of peach, fuchsia, yellow ochre, turquoises and plum.

Pansies within that inspire Missoni's taste to create impeccable contrasts. Because in the total blackness, the lacquers used on the outside have the depth of purple and burgundy, with lenses that are invariably smoke colored.
Missoni never renounces fun, or its way of taking risks, which does not mean extremism, but surprises.

Sophistication comes from play, as in the drop shapes, which assume a distinctly Seventies feel and curvature, and yet, soften them in the choice of transparent acetates, which turn to yellow and powder sky blue, subsequently concealing an undeniable black mold within.

Extremes are banned: what counts is color, on the one hand, and design, on the other.
As with the mask models designed for younger people, made up of strong lenses screwed onto contrasting color, injected sides, where light becomes central in the nosepiece, in metal, and on the hammered 'M' of the logo, alluding to the theatrical quotation of a dazzling Broadway.
