These two metal styles feature bright
colours inside the temples that subtly
spice up this timeless design.

Raffaele is Serengeti’s most vintage
shape for the upcoming season. To
complement the Raffaele is the elegant
and trendy Leonora. Both styles are
from the Serengeti Acetate collection.
Both metal usage and built-up details
are on the rise for the coming year.
The Ogi Eyewear Red Rose Paiva
cat-eye shape shows off its contrasting
metals and designerly shielding along
the temple rim. The Red Rose Asti
frame is a classic P3 round shape.
“With the major incorporation of
metals, we’re seeing the use of natural,
true metal colours like silver, gold and
rose gold,” says Ogi designer Chelsey
Wright. “Along with metals, the practice
of revitalizing vintage wear is an
exciting, ongoing project.” There is a
focus this year on light-weight, slim
designs, according to Alternative/
Plan “B” Eyewear.
“Chunky looks have not come back
around yet,” says Cassandra Slepian,
marketing.

“Definitely keeping to some of the very
cool vintage inspirations we’ve been
seeing, Aviators and cat-eyes taken to
their modern extreme, animal print
and other graphic prints are also going
to be present for the 2019 year.”
These looks are visible in Glacee models
GL6885 and GL6886.
“Oversized rounds and the playful use
of empty or negative space is also
creating big looks.”
