The Fabris Lane Optical Collection 2009
This long-awaited and much anticipated collection has been carefully designed and crafted with real love and affection.
Fabris Lane seasonal sunglasses collections have always been the very epitome of elegance and style, but the launch of this complementary new optical range represents a new era in luxurious yet accessible eyewear. With a new signature styling, refined materials and distinctive designs, 2009 is the year Fabris Lane has truly come of age as an international eyewear brand.
Inspiration for all the new collections is drawn from iconic eyewear shapes, classic styling through the decades, and an admiration
for quintessential modern English style. This all combines in a contemporary range that exudes fashion-ability, status and heritage.
The Fabris Lane optical womenswear collection features signature styles that exude real personality.
Dorothy is a delicate vintage inspired acetate half-frame with a round lens shape, and is available in crystal pink, dark wine or tortoiseshell. Sylvia is also a vintage inspired frame: a cats-eye oval in cream, crystal purple or streaky brown. Polly completes the vintage theme; a retro square acetate with contrasting frame and temple colours such as burgundy and crystal purple or dark tortoiseshell and champagne. More contemporary styles include Martha, which is a metal and plastic combination butterfly frame, and Sofia, an elegant butterfly half-frame. As with all Fabris Lane collections, the colour treatments are imaginative yet refined, such as layered burgundy and pinks, black layered over dark orange, and brown horn over cream. Each and every style is wearable, always flattering, and always full of character.
The Fabris Lane homme optical range takes iconic eyewear shapes and gives them a modern contemporary twist.
Woody is a signature style; a vintage square with keyhole nosebridge and available in black, dark brown or streaky grey horn. Roman and Harry are partner styles also with a keyhole nosebridge, but with a rectangle lens or larger square lens respectively and available in the same colour treatments. Metal frames also have vintage origins. Bobby and Winston are distinctive rim wire frames in classic square and round shapes, coloured in matt brown, gunmetal or dark grey. These styles are complemented by more contemporary shapes such as Eddy, a moulded metal half frame and George which is a full frame metal rectangle in matt grey, dark brass or dark brown. Premium branding treatments and refined details feature throughout the collection.
