Be hip but be Dsquared2
MANILA, Philippines - Dsquared2, the fashion line of Canadian twin brothers Dean and Dan Caten, lets you see through hip and edgy eyewear for fall-winter 2014-15. Mixing elegance with a fashion edge, fine-tuned with iconic retro eyewear elements, Dsquared2’s new shades and eyeglasses blend modern style with vintage details and refined colors.
Acetate sunglasses’ soft shape draws inspiration from a 1950s glamorous style, but is given a contemporary edge with design accents of colored stripes and an elegant metal application on the temples inscribed with Dsquared2’s slogan “Born in Canada, Made in Italy”.
Rounded and oversized, the women’s style borrows its form from the 1970s. Refined chromatic colors including black, havana, gradient crystal combined with pearl coral or blue, paired with metal detailing visible on the temples where the logo is engraved, lend a sophisticated allure.
Fusing materials acetate and lightweight metal, men’s style has strong, defined lines. The top binds to the lower half in a lightweight metal to create a modern take on a classic squared shape. Unexpected volumes are noted in the acetate frame, with its pilot shape of rounded lines and a classic keyhole bridge, a nod to iconic retro sunglasses design. Vintage elements set it apart.
Sleek urban style influences the acetate unisex eyeglasses with their rounded organic shape. Unexpected colors of black, grey mélange, dark havana, green or blue transparent give the utilitarian model an irreverent edge.
Created for the contemporary eyeglasses wearer whose wardrobe of glasses complements her look, the oversized square-shaped model in lightweight acetate is distinguished by elegant colors of blue and rose gradient brown in addition to classic black and Havana.
Masculine form of rectangular and geometric outlines the men’s acetate minimalist frames. The style is updated with plays on color and texture finishes including glossy and matte.
Distinctively retro, the men’s model is characterized by a pilot shape with a classic double bridge. The top bar features an enameled ornamentation that reads 1964, the birth year of Dsquared2’s designers Dean and Dan Caten, and the maple leaf — a duo of the brand’s design signatures.
