CEO Sunglasses By Alexander Wang & Gentle Monster

Gentle Monster has collaborated with legendary fashion icon Alexander Wang on a new range of luxury eyewear, nicknamed the “CEO” lineup. The pieces were initially shown off at Wang’s FW18 presentation this past February, featuring fully acetate frames with CEO decals on the temples.

The CEO sunglasses were one of the main highlights of Wang’s show, which is saying something considering practically every piece you see in a Wang show deserves its own headline. The CEO glasses are available in three colorways: red, yellow, and black. Along with the CEO label, each pair also shows off Alexander Wang x Gentle Monster branding.

If you want to get more specific, here are the details: The front of the frame measures 144.8mm, while the side is a tad bit longer at 151.2mm. The lens are 51mm wide and 28.7mm high. You can get one now for $295 apiece.

As for the aesthetic of the CEO Sunglasses, there’s nothing special here. Make no mistake — they’re still very pretty sunglasses, and having Wang’s name on each one guarantees that. But you won’t be getting experimental shapes here. They’re pretty much vanilla, with rectangular shape lenses and a subtle cat eye. If you want to be a bit more risky, you can check Gentle Monster and Wang’s other collaborations, such as the disc-shaped Hackerzack, and the butterfly wings-shaped Animal X. There’s also the Solaris 02, which carries enough peculiarity to turn heads as you parade it around the metropolis. Either way, you’re definitely going to look cool wearing any of these, so what are you waiting for?

Dita A/W ’18 Eyewear Collection

Luxury eyewear brand Dita finally brings us its latest collection, and as typical of its lineup, this year’s new crop of stylish glasses are nothing short of stunning, and you’ll be surprised that there’s even a bit of Art Deco thrown in there for good measure.

It’s clear that for this collection, Dita felt compelled to experiment with some new shapes and silhouettes — creating fashion-forward looks has always been part of its identity, so this should come as no shock to fans. One result of those experiments is the latest frame in their Mach series with the sixth iteration. The design boasts a sleek set of lenses on a titanium frame for a sophisticated and seamless look. And some of them incorporate the Tessel, a frame with a unique saddle bridge swing arm system that adapts to whoever is wearing them.

But it doesn’t hurt to look back, and if any brand knows that, it’s Dita. So it didn’t forget about its most iconic designs — you’ll find some of them revamped for this lineup. The brand always impresses when it comes to bringing some of its signature looks for the modern crowd, and these new glasses are further proof of that.

You can find the latest collection below, and you may visit Dita’s online shop to get yourself some fancy new eyewear right this instant. As always, expect to break bank if you’re planning to get any or all of these models, but that’s the price you pay luxury eyewear that’s simply like no other.
