Oliver Peoples Summer 2008 sun and optical collection this season draw inspiration from the Oliver Peoples archive, incorporating a retro look with cutting edge developments in frame design. The collection continues to expand on the trends of last season with heavily rounded and beveled frames designed for fashion forward people with unique style.

The launch of this collection also sees the introduction of ‘Suspended Metal’ technology- which is exclusive to Oliver Peoples and is an exciting accomplishment in sunglass design. The sun collection includes the debut style of this new technology- the Sofiane.

The Sofiane is elegant and feminine and features a metal wire encased in two layers of hand-sculpted plastic; resulting in the metal appearing ‘suspended’. A favourite of all the most fabulous Kates- Kate Hudson, Katie Holmes and Kate Beckinsale; it’s certainly the must have sunglass of the season.

Available for $520. For stockists phone 03 8598 3107
