The recent Y2K trend has brought many brands back into the spotlight, with Vivienne Westwood becoming a favorite among fashion enthusiasts. The iconic Orb Pearl chokers and earrings have gained significant exposure in street style photography! If you’re captivated by this classic house motif, “The Orb,” why not incorporate it into your eyewear, showcasing this symbol of the brand’s DNA in a more prominent way?
In this year’s Sun Collection, Vivienne Westwood once again demonstrates a creativity that transcends time. The collection draws inspiration from retro styles, Baroque inspired frames, and intricate embellishments. Classic shapes take inspiration from 50s and 60s photo booth imagery, while bold design elements pay tribute to the spirit of rebellion, blending traditional and contemporary influences. Bespoke details feature on metal work and hinges, whilst pearls, a house motif, feature on embellished frames creating unusual silhouettes and intricate detailing. The Vivienne Westwood orb is seen throughout the collection. Sculptural, it sits on the hinge of the frame or is found embossed into metal work. Notably, the collection is made from Eastman’s “Acetate Renew” eco-friendly material, showcasing luxurious quality while upholding the brand’s commitment to the planet.
MODEL: SUNDAY
The model “Sunday” features an oversized oval frame adorned with stunning imagery from the Baroque painting of French artist François Boucher (1703–1770). The water droplet-shaped cutouts on the frame seemingly “break through” the artwork, merging classical aesthetics with modern deconstruction for a unique allure.
MODEL: REED
The “Reed” model boasts a bold thick acetate frame paired with custom metal details, embodying a modern style. This model is available in classic brown tortoiseshell as well as trendy dark green tortoiseshell options.
MODEL: SOO
Inspired by the iconic Westwood ‘Horns’ headwear, the ‘Soo’ exaggerated frame is embellished with Swarovski crystals—playful and eye-catching.
MODEL: BALMORAL
The oversized “Balmoral” frame pays homage to vintage charm, with the classic orb and circular metal details on the temples precisely outlining the aesthetic interplay of retro and modern.
