Fashionable Eyewear: The New Zenni Optical Metropolitan Collection

by Rachael Comeau

zenni optical metropolitan collection

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.

Zenni Optical prides itself on creating original and fashionable designs, both prescription and non-prescription, at very affordable prices. This collection is no different, with the frames ranging from $10 to $40. All frames in the collection will be available on ZenniOptical.com starting February 22nd.

Full Disclosure: Fashion Pulse Daily was given frames for editorial consideration.

NYFW Fall 2014: Bibhu Mohapatra, Ricardo Seco, Timo Weiland

The Show: Bibhu Mohapatra

The Theme: An Elegant Take on Natural Elements

The Color Palette: Mix of earth tones (black, white, green, brown), metallic (silver, gold, copper), an assortment of purples (violet, maroon, lavender) and pops of rich colors (red, mustard yellow)

The Signature Look of the Collection: Bibhu Mohapatra may have used a wide array of colors in this season’s collection but the one motif that remained constant throughout were the elements of luxury and glamour displayed in each and every look.  Mohapatra juxtaposed his use of earth tones by pairing them with delicate satin and rich furs. The colors used in some of his pieces were reminiscent of a mountain landscape, which would make sense in that the designer credited being inspired by the countries of Mongolia and Tibet this season.

The most standout piece from the collection was the designer’s last look. The dress had a fitted, almost corset-like bodice and subtly flared out at the bottom. It was the ideal piece to close the collection since the dress was the perfect encapsulation of Mohapatra’s entire show; subdued and natural glamour.

The Show: Ricardo Seco

The Theme: Americana, the ’60s Reinterpreted

The Color Palette: black, gray, white, pops of pastels (light pink, lavender, baby blue)

The Signature Look of the Collection: Ricardo Seco’s inspiration for his fall/winter 2014 collection was the timelessness of the ’60s. Entitled “Forever,” the show proved that certain silhouettes have the ability to stay relevant and nonetheless chic through the decades. Seco’s reinterpretation of the past was undeniably cool, from the silk scarves tied around the models’ shoulders to the leather jackets draped over the men’s shoulders.

Former first lady Jackie Kennedy Onassis was a major theme in the designer’s collection as well, for her face was screen-printed on both the scarves and T-shirts that were sent down the runway. Ultimately, the collection achieved the sense of classic timelessness that Seco sought to create and these pieces too will be able to transcend the fads of the future.

The Show: Timo Weiland

The Theme: Low Key Grunge Done in a Cool Girl Way

The Color Palette: Black, white, blues, grays, maroon

The Signature Look of the Collection: Designers Timo Weiland, Alan Eckstein, and Donna Kang sent an assortment of prints down the runway this season, from checkered patterns to horizontal and zig- zag stripes. The incorporation of fringe, leather, and pumped up metallic also proved that the designers were willing to go out on a limb this season, texturally speaking. The silhouettes of the garments also varied. One of the first looks of the collection was a tightly fitted peplum dress, while later looks included slouchy sweater dresses and pleated knee length skirts.

The small black-and-white checks that adorned many of the garments, in particular the slim fit cigarette pants, gave a nod to the ’90s grunge era. However, any element of harshness that the grunge look can be associated with was toned down by each model’s seemingly nude face and sleek, simple hairstyle.  Ultimately, the entire collection exuded a sense of effortless cool, a look that many will certainly try and recreate this upcoming fall.

 The Show: Sally LaPointe

Theme: Polished Edge

Color Palette: Black, Grey, and White.

The Collection’s Signature Look: LaPointe’s black knit with feathered 3/4 sleeves paired with a leather pencil skirt are certainly subversive, powerful, yet a finished look. Perhaps the heightened collar, ala turtleneck, will be making a comeback for fall 2014 as well…

The Show: Costello Tagliapietra

The Theme: Strength and Power, heroines from science fiction and fantasy.

The Color Palette: Costello Tagliapietra debuted a jaw-dropping collection this season, comprised of metallic, varying neutral hues of navy, grey tweeds and browns adorned with Tanzanite jewel buttons

The Collection’s Signature Look: Costello’s monocramatic metallic green tailored blazer and pant set was definitely a piece worth raving about. Its tailored appeal and metallic color straddled cool and classic yet effortlessly cutting edge. Cropped at the ankle, the elevated hem length for pants is here to stay, which means you can show off some incredible heels with this particular look.

The Show: Timo Weiland Spring 2013

The Theme: After deejaying at the opening of the Brooklyn Museum’s Keith Haring exhibit, Timo Weiland and Alan Eckstein became fascinated with the artist’s involvement in New York’s eighties hip-hop movement. Menswear designs boasted relaxed silhouettes and bold graphics. Womenswear reflected Haring’s signature graffiti art; select pieces were embellished with dense arrangements of Swarovski Elements. The collection was abundant with bright colors and oversized patterns including herringbone and houndstooth.
