"The Mama’s Brocade collection from Dolce & Gabbana draws inspiration from the island of Sicily for a vintage effect. Frames with brocade detailing evoke the furnishings of baroque palazzi, in both the sophisticated embossed monochrome version and its floral cousin, decorated with a bouquet of red roses.”
That's how Dolce & Gabbana describes their latest range of glasses. And, the flamboyant wording of the press release matched the packaging in which it came: a dusty pink folder embellished with a baroque pattern and filled with ornate sketches of the sunnies pictured above.
The new range of Dolce & Gabanna sunglasses are clearly for the woman who wants to be noticed when she wears her elaborate frames.
A print of red and white roses on a black background give these shades a romantic, feminine feel.
You can clearly see Sicilian brocade was the inspiration behind these ornate sunglasses.
This pair makes more of a subdued statement; they're simple and chic.
Head out to your nearest Dolce & Gabbana stockist, like Sunglass Hut, to buy yourself a pair, or drop a hint for one of your loved ones to get them for you over the festive season.
