Versace Men’s Eyewear Fall / Winter 2013-2014
You have probably already seen Versace ladies eyewear presented during Milan Fashion Week. They were slightly embellished with tiny crystals. But Versace Eyewear for men from fall / winter 2013 -2014 show demonstrates a way higher level of eyewear embellishing.
The runway show started with Jay Gatsby-inspired1920s-style checked suits with each next look being more and more extravagant and opulent. Many garments were made of leather and there was even a sumptuous fur coat.
The whole collection is meant to embody luxury. And so are the sunglasses. Versace men’s sunglasses feature a classic aviator shape and boast lots of decorative details – the temples are generously embellished with sparkling pattern. And the bridge is decorated with leather and a shiny rivet.
In fact embellished sunglasses are not considered trendy this season – stylists suggest wearing classy timeless designs with no frills instead. But Versace likes to go beyond the trends. The Italian brand creates its collection for those who like their clothes to be fun, for those who see their wardrobe as a means to express creativity and for those who hardly ever buy conventional garments and accessories – Versace knows its target audience and there is no doubt there will be a lot of fans of these embellished aviators.
Those who think that mens fashion doesn’t offer that much room for creativity and experimenting as ladies fashion does, should definitely watch the video of Versace Men fall / winter 2013-14 Runway Show – don’t forget to pay attention to the sunglasses!

Chanel Eyewear Cruise 2013-2014

But the runway shows like Chanel Cruise 2013-2014 are held around May. So now you have a great opportunity to see the Chanel Cruise sunglasses that well-off people are going to pack with them when going to explore the seas and oceans next fall and winter.
The Chanel Cruise 2013-2014 show was held in Singapore – actually the first time Chanel collection is presented in Asia. The setting was quite unusual – a colonial style bungalow. Outdoor thatched bars created a great atmosphere for the guests to chat about the collection – and there was a lot to discuss.
All outfits were elegantly accessorized. Strings of pearls were the biggest hit. These are perhaps the only neck embellishments that can never be “too much”. There were only four Chanel Cruise sunglasses designs but they are sure to match all women outfits in the collection.
The black sunglasses feature the total trend of this year’s Cruise collections – mirrored lenses. These shades come in three shapes. The catchiest ones have a distinct cat-eye shape and look really unusual with oblique bangs.
One more sunglass style features an original color solution – not often black-and-white sunglasses look that fresh. The right part of the frame is white, then there is a color twist on the bridge – and the left side is black.
If you want to admire these sunglasses in more detail check out this photo from Chanel Cruise 2013/14 Lookbook. The whole Chanel Cruise lookbook contains only black-and-white photos to accentuate the retro air and the silhouettes.

Ralph Lauren Eyewear Spring / Summer 2013 Campaign
It’s impossible to perceive the idea behind Ralph Lauren sunglasses from Spring / Summer 2013 campaign without considering the whole spring / summer collection. Obviously, the garments and accessories look great separately. But when put together into ensembles they sort of tell a story – a Spanish one, actually. The looks are inspired by southwest scenery, the Spanish rose, corrida and the bohemian style of Spanish artists. These are the four pillars of the collection. But you can see all that in the outfits without even reading the reviews.
Ralph Lauren decided to further emphasize the artistry filling of this collection with work-of-art accessories such as laser-cut leather belts, embellished shoes, embroidered footwear and bags with fringe.
It’s obvious that for such a colorful and bold collection, embellished sunglasses would be an overkill. That is why the three pieces of Ralph Lauren eyewear collection for spring / summer 2013 feature elegant shapes and muted colors: beige, tortoise, black and brown.
Round lenses paired with cat-eye plastic frame represent Ralph Lauren’s vision of timeless elegance – something that a girl with creative mind is likely to opt for. It’s often hard to find a pair of fancy sunglasses to complete an evening look. Well, it seems like such sunglasses have recently been created – the black cat-eye sunglasses go well with sumptuous evening gowns.
The bow-tie shaped Ralph Lauren sunglasses ask for more clear lines. That is when a white wrap shirt is a clear choice. The sleek earrings and a neck band accentuate the elegance and austerity of these shades.
The matador-inspired outfit is paired with oversized cat-eye sunglasses with thin temples. It’s better to emphasize the beautiful shape of these shades by pulling back your hair. A black beret is perfect for that.
It’s a good idea to borrow a bunch of ideas from the Ralph Lauren Spring / Summer 2013 ad campaign. Don a pair of the shades that you like the most in this collection, put on an extravagant hat and go explore some exhibition (a Spanish one would be perfection). If you happen to run into Ralph Lauren during one of such strolls, he will totally compliment on your style.

The recently shot Tory Burch Summer 2013 video lasts only like a minute. Still it gives one a chance to check out all the recent summer garments by the American designer including four amazing Tory Burch sunglasses.
As the campaign video unfolds you first see the so called etched “T” sunglasses. At first glance they look like conventional rectangular-shaped sunglasses but in fact they are just packed with unexpected details. First of all, these are shield seamless sunglasses and second of all what first seems to be a plastic frame is in fact an etched pattern. As a result these Tory Burch sunglasses are incredibly light and you hardly feel them on your nose!
Paired with the bathing suits are Tory Burch summer aviators spiced up with a plastic-metal frame. These shades have an unmistakable retro air about them. And no summer is summer enough without a few retro-style accessories.
Of all the summer collection Magpie is perhaps the most outstanding design – it even starred at Tory Burch spring runway show. Rectangular-shaped sunglasses combine a catchy graphic pattern with wood. The signature T-logo looks spectacular against the wood background of the temple. These sunglasses are a great way to add some color to white summer outfits and they also look great when paired with other patterns: stripes, floral prints, graphics – whatever you can think of.
And last but not least are Classic sunglasses that really are classic in all respects – they have the most elegant rectangular frame and the universally adored tortoiseshell color.
In the very atmospheric campaign video Lara Mullen and Dree Hemingway are flaunting great Tory Burch sunglasses and outfits while enjoying traditional summer pursuits – lying on the beach, exploring the unknown streets and strolling around the local market.

Have you already seen Christian Dior fall / winter runway show which took place on the first day of March? If yes, you must have spotted very impressive Christian Dior sunglasses! The brand really flourishes under the direction of Raf Simons. And in fall / winter 2013-2014 collection the designer compared his own vision of fashion with that of Christian Dior himself. He actually borrowed interesting fashion details from the past and breathed a new life into them.
Accessories featured by the models really caught one’s attention. Particularly shoes with unusually placed heels and bags with Andy Warhol shoe illustrations on them. There was just one pair of sunglasses featured during Christian Dior fall / winter 2013-2014 runway show – but its exceptional design was worth dozens of conventional shades.
Christian Dior sunglasses from fall / winter 2013 represent a very original application of butterfly shape – the lenses are slightly curved in the upper part and that creates an impression that there actually is a stunning butterfly resting on your face that is just about to fly away. The shades feature a metal frame and the lenses extend beyond it taking the concept of oversized sunglasses to a new level. It’s been a while since we’ve seen such an out-of-this-world piece of eyewear.
The shades looked really gorgeous when paired with a casual couture knitted dress in black-and-white tones. This dress combines both sophistication and functionality (it’s really warm) and the Christian Dior sunglasses are a perfect addition to it.
