The Dolce&Gabbana Summer 2015 eyewear collection is inspired by the patterns and colours that stem
from the Spanish influence in Sicily. This year’s limited edition ‘Spain in Sicily’ frames have a Spanish spirit and take their inspiration from the traditional combs that secure the veils of flamenco dancers, whilst marquetry embodies the craftsmanship and attention to detail so synonymous with the Italian fashion industry. The classic animal-print detailing returns in this collection to lend a touch of eccentricity.
DG4256. Inspired by ‘Spain in Sicily’, one of the themes of the Dolce&Gabbana PE 2015 collection,
these limited edition sunglasses have received
rave reviews from the catwalks and fashion shows.
Rounded in shape, with a broad front section in inlaid
acetate, the frames are reminiscent of the tortoiseshell
Spanish combs used by flamenco dancers
to keep their mantillas in place. The sunglasses evoke
an imperious, overwhelming sense of femininity,
softened by a sensual contrast between light and
dark, with tinted lenses completing the look. Available
colour combinations include polished black
with grey tinted lenses and dark Havana and blonde
Havana with brandy-coloured tinted lenses. A resin
Dolce&Gabbana logo holds pride of place on the
temples. The sunglasses are presented in a special
‘precious box’ with personalised case, decorated
with red carnations on black and white polka dots.
DG3236. These optical frames are the perfect interpretation
of the PE 2015 collection’s ‘Spain in
Sicily’ theme from Dolce&Gabbana. The squared
lines are softened by temples in inlaid acetate, inspired
by the distinctive Spanish combs and fans,
lending a frisson of mystery to these effortlessly
seductive frames. Available in three classic colour
options: polished black, dark Havana and blonde
Havana. The Dolce&Gabbana logo is affixed to
the temples in resin. Also available in Asian Fit.
DG3229. A subtle butterfly shape adds an ethereal
gracefulness to these acetate optical frames,
whilst the sensual vibe is further enhanced by the
unmistakeable Dolce&Gabbana animalier print
which adorns the front section and temples and
creates contrast between the inner and outer sections.
Available in: leopard print top part over black
with black inner section, leopard print top part
over opaline raspberry with opaline raspberry inner
section, leopard print top part over opaline lime
green with opaline lime green inner section. The
Dolce&Gabbana logo holds pride of place on the
temples. Some versions available in Asian Fit.
WOMAN’S COLLECTION
DG4262. These squared sunglasses in acetate are
characterised by a pleasing contrast between animalierdetailing
– a great passion of Dolce&Gabbana –
and opaline colours. Distinctive leopard print adorns
the entirety of the temples and half of the front section,
allowing your chosen colour to complete the
look without being overpowered. Available in leopard
print on black with grey tinted lenses, leopard print on
opaline earth colour with brown tinted lenses, leopard
print on opaline raspberry with pink mirror lenses
and leopard print on opaline green with green tinted
lenses. The Dolce&Gabbana logo adorns the temples.
DG4257. Checked colour acetate provides the perfect
foil to the vintage elegance of the gold front
section and temples of these rounded sunglasses.
Available colour combinations include lemon
checked front section and temples with pale gold
detailing and gold mirror lenses or green apple
checked front section and temples with pale gold
detailing and green tinted lenses. There’s also a
completely black version, though pale gold detailing
and grey tinted lenses accentuate and complement
the look. The Dolce&Gabbana logo is etched
onto the temples.
DG4263. Gold triumphs in true Dolce&Gabbana
style with these squared sunglasses. The inner part
of the acetate frames is embellished with flashes of
gold, whilst the outside and temples are available in
a plethora of eye-catching colour options. Combinations
include black top part over gold with grey
tinted lenses, fuchsia top part over gold with pink
mirror lenses, silver top part over gold with silver
mirror lenses and sky blue top part over gold with
blue tinted lenses. And for those who love to push
the boundaries that little bit further, there’s even a
version which combines gold top part over gold
with gold mirror lenses. The Dolce&Gabbana logo
is embossed onto the temples.
WOMAN’S COLLECTION
DG3234. These cat-eye optical frames are the perfect
interpretation of Dolce&Gabbana’s Sicilian-inspired
style. The very essence of the island is evoked through
cube-effect coloured acetates, with retro flashes of gold
on the front section and temples completing the effect.
Available colour combinations include: front section
and temple tips in ice-coloured cube-effect acetate with
pale gold metal detailing or front section and temple
tips in green apple cube-effect acetate with pale gold
metal detailing. Alternatively, the elegant black version
with pale gold metal detailing makes for a more classic
look. The Dolce&Gabbana logo is engraved into the
temples, with some versions available in Asian Fit.
DG3232. Characterised by their subtle butterfly
shape, these optical frames are given an even more
feminine feel thanks to their gold inner section – in
homage to one of Dolce&Gabbana best-loved materials
– and gorgeous colour top section. Available
in Havana top part over gold, grey top part over
gold, petroleum top part over gold and fuchsia top
part over gold. The DG logo adorns the temples,
