“The long-standing relationship with
Kate Spade, which began back in 2000,
is a success story which has seen the
growth and expansion of the brand in the
eyewear sector, making it today a leader
in the high contemporary consumer
segment, especially in North America,
which represents the largest market for
the brand’s eyewear. The collections are

as demonstrated by the increasingly
positive business it is generating both
