“Responding to a demand for exceptional design for men, I have expanded our men’s collection for the season.…we’ve gone for statement shapes and used our artisan techniques to create elegant surface finishes…..in a color palette that was carefully researched to offer a new take on classics for men… ” Lara D’Alpaos, LARA D’

Known for her unique and joyful design style, rooted in Italy’s eyewear traditions, designer Lara D’Alpaos trained as an architect before returning to her family business in Belluno and developing a natural talent for creative eyewear design. Her latest designs for men are a reminder of her ingenious architecture-inspired style and meticulous approach to color, pattern, texture, and charismatic design.

LEON

An inspiring new take on the rectangle for men: translucent colors with a fun tri-color palette will allow a new sleek image, that fits a contemporary vibe.

KODY

The fabulous charismatic Kody: an oval-shaped inspired frame that is modern, understated but all the while a little bit quirky.

KUBERT

Strong, masculine, a vintage ‘infusion’: the Kubert takes a classic look and modernizes the shape with subtlety and panache.

LENNY

An aviator shape with a stand-out bridge, model Lenny has been inspired by aviators of bygone eras. The color palette and tri-color give the modern twist.
