Marcolin in Paris

«The common thread running through such different styles is Marcolin’s approach to every single brand, which entails a unique, tailored project that always takes three aspects into account: the specific moment in history, the brand’s legacy and the creative direction’s insights. Therefore, at Marcolin’s display space in Paris we saw TOM FORD’s oversize eyewear inspired by French glamour, true red-carpet frames featuring warm hues and make-up effect shaded lenses. The new MCM collection, instead, flaunts details borrowed from the world of luggage and speaks to the younger generations, with sculpted surfaces and lines that look to the future. adidas’ technology is always at the service of sports as well as style, while this year Zegna presents vintage-inspired eyewear enriched with new details, such as the logo that also serves as the hinge, turning into an aesthetic and functional element».

«There are timeless shapes in the world of eyewear, true classic must-haves that will never go out of style, although they are reinterpreted with new pops of color and volumes. Cat-eye shapes will therefore continue to be featured in the next collections, although low and rectangular silhouettes will dominate this winter. Teardrop frames, instead, are a constant trend that will never go out of fashion».

«Absolutely yes, large, wraparound shapes are a trend that has been reconfirmed, also based on what we saw at Silmo and what we will be seeing in the city this winter and on the beach next summer, perhaps revisited with new colors and materials, including innovative combinations of different metals. While staying true to the fresh, youthful, informal and colorful style that is typical of shield eyewear, of course».
