Curves are in for Prada’s fall/winter eyewear range
Story 14 - Products & Services

Shapes define the new eyewear collection of luxury brand Prada, with its soft and curvy glasses for women and decisive lines for men providing a stark contrast to the flat silhouettes presented
last season.

The fall/winter collection is now available in Singapore through Mirarian Marketing Pte Ltd, a jointventure company of luxury Italian retailer Luxottica and Singapore-based Sin Kwang Optical, which distributes premium eyewear locally and in Malaysia and Indonesia.

Part of the collection is the VPR53L, a “simple metal model” with flexhinged nylon arms. Set in the plastic of each arm is a decorative metal-wire arrow running along its length.

Another model is the VPR59L, an ultra-light milled titanium frame with a slightly convex shape.

Also available is the SPR21I, featured in the sun collection. This acetate model features a feminine cut and colours that range from the classic black to varying tortoise-shell shades.

Prices for the eyewear, which are available in selected optical outlets, start from S$560 (US$372.06).
