Chris Viljoen of Elle recently did a write up about pretentious people who wear sunglasses long after the sun goes down to fashion events, in malls and so on. I agree 100%.
With advances in technology speeding by as they do, and with 3D movies taking over modern cinema it really is no surprise that a design house took over those shabby nerd frames and gave them a makeover. Come December Gucci will release the "optically correct 6-base curved lenses with circular polarized technology" designer frames at a ludicrous small cost of $225, but only in Gucci boutiques. As for Armani Exchange their follow up aviator style shades will retail for $85 (that's $140 cheaper than Gucci) exclusively in the US starting in December.
Will you be seeing enough 3D movies to justify the purchase of these? I'm going to wait until Jeremy Scott and Lady GaGa create something a little more fun.
