reativity underpins 2015’s print trend. You can make your mark once again in Ray-Ban as more icons are redressed in real camouflage fabric. One of the most famous and coveted fashion accessories in the world, the Gucci Flora silk scarf is captured in all its delicacy between transparent layers. McQ’s catwalk haze prints run over rubber. Carrera debut its dazzling new geo camo print along with an innovative interchangeable face. Fendi’s galactic catwalk prints are realised in stunningly crafted enamel and acetate. Cult sensation Taylor Morris’ obsession gives us Wonderland; a unique new acetate. Even if head-to-toe’s too much or you can’t bear clashing, at least allow printed sunglasses to stop you fading into the background when the sun shines...

Now the Ray-Ban Aviator comes camouflaged for 2015. Real camo fabric is mounted by hand over the frame and echoed in silicone temple tips. Not for hiding this is the ultimate way to stand out in the iconic frame. Green classic G-15 lenses team perfectly with the camo tones. Adjustable silicone nosepads give bespoke comfort.
GUCCI 3739S
Gucci’s iconic silk Flora scarf comes to sunglasses in 3739S. In 1966, Gucci commissioned an illustrator to create a beautiful floral scarf special enough for Princess Grace of Monaco. The scarf has since made its mark in Gucci’s and fashion history. The unmistakable poetic flowers printed on delicate silk are caught between lightweight transparent Optyl. Coloured lenses coordinate. Sleek metal temples make for a contemporary look. UV400 lenses are etched with the famous logo.
CARRERA 5022/S INTERCHANGEABLE FRONT
Metal retro round classic or plastic retro round? Can’t decide? Bag both looks in one and two colour options with Carrera 5022/S. Just like changing your phone case, add the removable lightweight Optyl cover and rock a classic plastic retro round when you’re done with classic metal rims. Winged flat metal temples add cool modern edge. Slick multi layered mirrored lenses turn heads.

Taylor Morris Vredefort is named after the meteorite that fell in South Africa 2 billion years ago uncovering the world’s largest platinum and gold reserves. The young eyewear brand’s passion for acetates sees its most original yet in “Wonderland ”. Its pink version teamed with matching lenses is a beautiful rich display of multi-colour flecked tortoiseshell. The D shaped lenses are cut with a key hole bridge topped with metal. Triple circular plaques at the temples are a TM symbol.
FENDI 0087S GALASSIA
As seen on Fendi’s AW14-15 runway inspiration for Fendi’s Galassia comes from the galaxies of the universe. A havana acetate front is enhanced by a exclusive multi-coloured acetate and enamel mix brow line. And sleek ruthenium temples combine with havana temple tips. Fendi’s unique craftsmanship is revealed further through 0087S’s squared silhouette with a round bottom and dipped brow.
DOLCE AND GABBANA 4216
With its beauty, scent and rich symbolism the rose frequents the Dolce and Gabbana runway. On the spring/summer ‘15 catwalk it was the Spanish rose that inspired the house. In exclusive rose printed acetate they come to Dolce and Gabbana 4216 sunglasses. Impressive layering reveals white at the centre and black in the interior. The famous DG logo is set at the temples in gold metal. Handmade in Italy.

loral, geometric or stripes - print has the attitude of camouflage these days. Especially when you’re daring enough to let it wander from the usual tee. For 2015 Ray-Ban cover its icons in real camouflage fabric. Carrera inspired by a generation of personalisation create interchangeable frame faces in dazzling geo camo. Wear with colour blocking for a high contrast pop or mash up with more print.
CARRERA 5002
Updated for 2015 with Carrera’s new geo camo and slick mirrored lenses the 5002 has never looked so good. Deep temples give you a big splash of the season’s top sunglass print. With high definition temples and flat top this trendy easy to wear shape now turns even more heads. Made from light weight Optyl and with rubber temple tips for all day comfort. The iconic Carrera logo is in relief on the temples and etched on a single lens.
MCQ 0002S
‘The wayfarer is so popular getting a bit of exclusivity is thrilling. But if an all over print is too much keep it to the temples. McQ’s runway haze prints recall Alexander McQueen’s mirror prints. In matte rubber the essential wayfarer feels more contemporary than ever. The McQ logo is set in metal at the temples’.
POLAROID PLD6008S
Polaroid’s PLD6008S is somewhere between tortoiseshell and camo. Running through a masculine boxy wayfarer style it’s right on the money. Blocking glare with Polaroid’s pioneering polarised lenses as standard, the price is too. Lenses are UV400 but also polarised blocking glare for maximum comfort.
CARRERA 5023/S INTERCHANGABLE FRONT
Carrera’s geo camo adds edge to retro. From the innovative Interchangable Front collection inspired by customisable accesories like tablets and phones you can switch faces for a different look. As well as working cool camo you get a classic black front too. Then there’s what lies beaneath - classic wire rims for when you want to cool off on the print.
