Bottega Veneta 2008 fall/winter collection

Next season's sunglasses and vision frames collection from Bottega Veneta expresses the brand's discreet style and is the perfect blend of refined design, contemporary practicality and top-quality materials.

Glamorous fascination and audacity: the alluring new aviator sunglasses in acetate have soft lines, a rounded shape and come in natural colors like Havana, black and crystal. Just like the maison's intertwined leatherwear, the large temples have an intertwined leather decoration inserted in an antiqued metal plaque. Five visible screws, the Bottega Veneta's style characteristic, personalize the temple end pieces.

A classic in contemporary key: the timeless femininity of a large, rounded frame is given a contemporary look with new materials and new proportions. Fascination in an elaborate construction, antiqued details and acetate inserts attached by small visible screws. The contrast between a large, enveloping shape in perfect diva style and ultra-slim temples with the intertwined leather insert is highly seductive.

Sophisticated vintage look: sunglasses in titanium, a very light and precious material. The rounded lenses and forked temples create a sophisticated mood emphasized by the intertwined leather inserts along the temples. The effect is simply, surprisingly, chic.
