Characterized by the vintage trend, the iconic butterfly sunglasses persist and sign a stylistic return in time (here, the years 50-60) and this, for several consecutive seasons.
THE SUNGLASSES OF THIS SEASON
And if the marks do not alter the original shape, they assume their difference by the details: translucent frames at Guess, scarlet branches at Morgan, glasses tinted with pink by Marc by Marc Jacobs or else with sequins at Gucci.
- The aura of the sixties
A model intrinsically linked to the fashion of the 60s, butterfly glasses, passed on the nose of all the icons of then, cultivate a certain style nostalgia: assumed roundness and subtly stretched up, pop colors or more soberly scaled or spotted. Vintage Accuracy: the degraded color branches seen at Accessorize and Esprit.
- The retro-futuristic tendency
Other houses, in search of modernity, reverse the retro trend with innovative materials and avant-garde motifs. Examples: the transparent acetate of the model signed by Guess and the sequined diamonds of the goggles Gucci stamped.
- The whimsical touch
Another possibility: twist retro aesthetics with a touch of fantasy. With this in mind, the Quay brand offers a pair of butterfly glasses that pulls on the ultra-violet while on the side of Marc Jacobs, one sees life in pink with salmon-colored glasses and an Incarnat mount that literally follows the shape of a butterfly wing. Ultimate homage.
