Prada
Optical Collection
Prada is synonymous with a style that has always anticipated, and often dictated, new trends in every field. Prada¡¯s influence is universally acknowledged by the market and its most astute observers.
For Prada, the nexus of everything is unquestionable quality, which is applied to every stage of its process, from design to the selection of materials, from manufacturing to retail sales, from advertising campaigns to communication strategies. All this comes together to create a ¡°chain of value¡± that generates ¡°total quality¡±.
This precision is never ostentatious, but rather demonstrates the attention to detail that gives a unique and desirable allure to all Prada products.
Sophisticated and elegant, Prada products are characterised by a distinctive personality and unmistakable style.
Once again we find these qualities in the eyewear presented in Prada¡¯s new ¡°Sun¡± and ¡°Optical¡± collections.
SPRING/SUMMER 2008 COLLECTION
A study in shapes ¨C from classic to futuristic, small and rounded to extra-large and square ¨C and experimentation with materials ¨C that play on an acetate/metal contrast ¨C define the new Prada eyewear. The most significant themes include a series of sun and optical models made entirely of titanium, distinguished by a slightly perforated surface, typically used on the metal trimmings of Prada leather goods. The plastics in the collection alternate warm, natural colors with distinct, metallic colors, paired with solid or graded lenses in smoke, brown and green.
