British luxury lifestyle brand Mulberry‘s future is seemingly so bright that they have added sunglasses to their 2019 accessories line-up. The British fashion house has partnered up with Italian eyewear company, De Rigo Vision to launch its first-ever eyewear collection for this Spring/Summer season. A shining partnership indeed, as De Rigo Vision has collaborated with luxury brands such as Carolina Herrara, Chopard and Furla in the past.
The stylish frames have been designed by Mulberry‘s design team, and have been led by Creative Director Johnny Coca. By expanding its accessories line, the British brand hopes to expand its image as an important contender in the lifestyle game.
When asked where his inspiration for the line comes from, Coca told reporters, “collecting and designing sunglasses is one of my personal passions, so it has been a pleasure for me to develop them as a new key category for Mulberry.”
Inspired by the likes of iconic British celebrities such as Kate Moss and John Lennon, the line features 20 different pairs in 8 different styles. Those looking for chunky styles will be drawn to the Kate, Emma, Charlotte and Gian. Meanwhile, the Tony and Lenny frames provide more minimalist and lightweight shapes. The Enyd, meanwhile, combines the best of both worlds by fusing together the maximalist framework with a touch of the metal.
