Legendary eyewear designer Larry Sands and Bugatti have joined forces to unveil the luxury brand’s first range of eyewear. Nine styles comprising of 37 statement pieces headline the launch.
Available in different materials including palladium, 925 sterling silver, Macassar ebony and carbon fibre of course, the design language is unmistakably Bugatti. Called ‘Collection One’, the series was headlined by the expertise of Larry Sands so that is true to Ettore Bugatti’s vision, “if comparable, it is no longer a Bugatti.” For over 60 years, Larry Sands has created eyewear for some of the world’s most prestigious fashion houses and brands.
Taking over two years to complete the collection, the eyewear pushes the boundaries and norms of the industry. Each piece is made in Japan from the most expensive materials in the world. ‘Positive Vapor Deposition’ (PVD) is a process normally used in the production of Bugatti’s automobiles but this time it is used to create a strong “Diamond Like Coating’ on the glasses.
The collection retails for between USD $1,295 and USD $15,000 and will be available here.
