Giorgio Armani Sunglasses: a colourful and graphic collection for 2010
The new Giorgio Armani sunglasses collection for 2010 are both contemporary and sophisticated with their elegant shapes, innovative decorative elements and interesting colour combinations to attract attention with irresistible charm.
The new Giorgio Armani sunglasses highlight sophisticated stylistic themes of seductive appeal as seen in the small metal fork frame for the sunglass models and the rectangular-shaped optical frames, both reminiscent of the Sixties.
The Optyl sunglass models with their futurist inspiration have soft shapes enriched with an elegant half-moon ornament made of a two-coloured metal that joins the front and temples in the round sunglass. The sophisticated colour palette emphasises the elegant charm of the Giorgio Armani sunglasses collection.
Born in 1934 in Piacenza, Italy, Giorgio Armani started from humble beginnings, developing a passion for theatre and cinema from an early age. During his early career he worked briefly as an assistant photographer before being promoted to work in the style office of La Rinascente, a Milanese department store. By the 1960’s, without any formal training, Armani’s creative talent had already led him to design a line of men’s wear for Nino Cerruti; he progressed from there, and by the early 1970’s had become a freelance fashion designer and consultant.
From there it was only a short step to his first major cat walk show at the prestigious Sala Bianca in Florence, which was greeted with great enthusiasm. From this point, Giorgio Armani went from strength to strength, and in 1982, he became the first fashion designer to appear on the cover of Time magazine since Christian Dior in the 1940s - a true reflection of his status as a fashion icon.
Giorgio Armani’s desire to celebrate and showcase the personality of the people wearing his designs, to compliment rather than overwhelm them is highlighted in the evolution of each season’s Giorgio Armani sunglasses collection.
The discreet glamour, formal elegance and fluidity of movement captured in the clean lines of his sunglass designs are all a reflection of Armani’s sources of inspiration taken, it is said, from his passions for the culture that surrounds him; travel, film, books, music, art, and people whose mannerisms and personalities he finds so fascinating and inspiring. Rather than following the faddish trends favoured by many designers, the aesthetic style favoured by Giorgio Armani has always tended toward the understated. This means that Giorgio Armani sunglasses, many of which are classically styled, can be worn for several seasons.
By remaining true to his seeming philosophy of grace and simplicity in design, Armani has ensured that this season’s collection offers an exciting array of sunglass models for both men and ladies. A combination of acetate and metal styles, featuring the instantly recognisable GA logo, that are elegant, sophisticated and timeless.
