Gucci’s new eyewear collection merges contemporary design with references from decades past. The collection’s mixed themes span from vintage allure to modern romanticism. The Fall/Winter 2018 season alternates classic silhouettes with eccentric and unconventional proportions and lens colors, featuring hand-applied Swarovski crystals on wide, square glasses, interlocking G’s on the temples, and ’80s style geometric designs.

In the optical collection, ’50s-inspired masculine shapes pay homage to the City Boy look, combining metal and acetate in streamlined frames marked by flexible cylindrical temples. Retro oversized shapes are also given a nod, constructed with lightweight metal and integrating pastel toned-lenses with vivid chrome effects.

Check out the imagery and gallery above, and have a look at the rest of the Fall/Winter 2018 collection on gucci.com
