Eyewear with a strong fashion component is just as important as function, and  Zenni Optical totally gets it. Its newest eyewear lineup, The Metropolitan Collection was inspired by America’s greatest cities and the urban lifestyle found within them, featuring classic eyewear frame styles, remodeled for today’s modern fashion requirements. To further emphasize the style component, fashion designer and artist Timo Weiland served as the creative director for a short film inspired by the new styles. 

There are a total of 14 different frames to choose from, all named after influential urban architects, such as Olmsted (Central Park), Wright (Fallingwater), and Stone (Radio City Music Hall). Each style comes in a variety of colors, including neutral tones and vibrant tortoiseshell patterned hues, and is also available as sunglasses.

Vogue Eyewear Limited Edition Collection!

by

If there is one thing that I love about the summer sun, it’s the opportunity to try out fabulous new shades! If you’re like me and you love sunglasses, then you will be extremely pleased to hear that the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) and Luxottica have teamed up with designers Devi Kroell, Kara Ross & Matt Murphy to create a limited edition Vogue Eyewear Collection. This collaboration is the one of a kind, for no other eyewear company has ever entered into a similar partnership before. It also marks the first time that each of these three designers have ventured into eyewear. The collection is debuting exclusively at Sunglass Hut and each item will retail for $129.95.

“Whip” by Devi Kroell


Whip embodies a modern safari look, with a fierce snakeskin texture in a soft ivory tone. Known for her tendency towards exotic skins, Kroell was inspired by her own travels abroad to create these statement sunglasses.

“Infinity” by Kara Ross


Infinity is both bold and elegant, exuding sophistication from every angle. As a luxury accessory designer, Ross worked to create a frame that would effortlessly compliment a variety of faces while remaining true to her design aesthetic.

“Neo” by Matt Murphy


Neo was inspired by the chic black body of a race car. With its sleek exterior and smooth curves, Murphy succeeded in creating a pair of sunglasses with an attitude all of its own.
