Roberto Cavalli brings in the Fall/Winter 2008-09 Eyewear Range

Business Desk
Roberto Cavalli has taken inspiration from the Savannah and its exotic animal population for his new Eyewear Collection. Its frames carry echoes of striped fantasies, leopard spots, and serpentine profiles with an ever-varying viewpoint.
The snake can be spotted at times in the precious strass details, while its tail can be seen in the pointed and linear shape of the earpieces. Animalier fantasies are found in the rich acetate colours and in the subtle details of the temples, emphasised by their darkly homogenous background.
The collection is made even more captivating by the elongated and linear profiles, while some of the frames are particularly sought for their baroque details that increase their elegance.
The combination of enamelled surfaces and golden metals with the strass plated RC monogram add the final touch of elegance, Maison style.
Iconic styles -
Model RC 423 - Palladio: A daring 100% acetate frame with Animalier fantasies, it has been designed for the woman who is self-confident and wants to show her elegance. The front profile is wide while slowly narrowing along the temples until reaching the fine earpieces. Both temples display the RC monogram, an important stylish detail in strass.
Model RC 428 - Mercurio: The gold coloured front, combined with the white enamel covered temples, create the brightest frame in this collection. An important and interesting detail is the metal monogram that winds its way between the front and the temples, softly designing the initials RC. The laser workmanship in gold colour, found on the temples, alludes to a more refined Animalier world and quietly reminds us of Roberto Cavalli’s brand.
Model RC 429 - Quarzo: This frame, with its clearly inspired Baroque details, immediately reminds us of a world of luxury. The particular workmanship of the steel temples, fashioned by delicate photo-shearing, creates an elegant decoration reaching from the front to the back of the frame and adds richness to its 100% metal construction. The RC monogram, placed on the nose bridge, is enriched by the tiny light spots that almost conceal the hinges.
