NEW LOOKS BY SILHOUETTE,
SAFILO
Silhouette, a brand distributed in
Canada by Canadian Optical Sup-
ply, has released new styles under
its Accent Shades collection for this
summer season.
The new sunglasses were originally
inspired by the giant blue butterfly
Morpho didius, whose wings are
adorned with a dark edge. The large,
expressive lens shapes are enhanced
by the rings without appearing heavy.
The translucent colours accentuate
the lightness of the shapes.

Cutouts harmoniously incorporate
the glass clips and temples into the
design, producing a particularly
charming and refined effect.
Each Accent Shades model is avail-
able with Silhouette Light Manage-
ment features in at least one lens
variation.
Eighteen sunglass styles are part of
the Rebecca Minkoff spring/summer
2019 eyewear collection, produced
and distributed by Safilo Group.
“As we continue to evolve and grow
our global lifestyle brand, sunglasses
add another option for our consum-
er,” says Rebecca Minkoff, co-founder
and creative director of Rebecca
Minkoff.
“I’m always looking for ways at mak-
ing a woman feel more empowered,
whether it’s a Moto or Crossbody, and
now sunglasses. It’s all about creat-
ing new ways to empower her as she
works towards her goals and better-
ing herself.”
The new styles include the oversized
aviator Stevie 4/S, the rimless metal
aviator Gloria 2/S and the round
shape Patti 1/S.
