Just like Olivier Rousteing’s most recent Paris Fashion Week runways, the Balmain Eyewear collections have been intensifying the focus on the distinctive heritage of the historic house, emphasizing the radically fresh and feminine outlook of Pierre Balmain’s earliest couture offerings, whose “New French Style” helped to set midcentury luxury fashion upon an entirely new trajectory. The B-Eye clearly incorporates the founder’s signature mastery of precise, architecturally inspired silhouettes, with the sculpted premium Japanese acetate giving a polished-yet-edgy, sensual spin to the timeless cat-eye, the most flattering of all feminine frames. The world’s finest titanium allows for perfect jewel-like complements, with Balmain Eyewear’s Japanese artisans crafting B-logoed titanium rivets, striking floating hinges and an eye-catching, front-of-frame, sleek gold accent. The B-Eye comes in four color combinations, including the rich new Balmain Brown Leather, channeling the recurring Egyptian inspirations that have set the house’s catwalks apart in recent years. Handmade in Japan. Includes Balmain box, hard case, soft case, cleaning cloth, and 1-year manufacturer warranty.
