Preview OPTIKA Optika Eyewear is launching a Blaine & Taylor London eyewear collection, featuring 12 new models for both men and women. Designed in the United Kingdom, Blaine & Taylor London is a unique titanium eyewear collection that bends acetate with titanium for original and exciting eyewear designs. Half the collection will feature pure titanium frames for extra light weight and durability. The other half will blend acetate fronts with titanium temples. The collection will feature a modern twist on the popular round eyewear shapes. Visit www.optikaeyewear.com for more information. MEXX The new Mexx Eyes collection, distributed in Canada by Lanctot, includes women’s styles 5344 and 5345, which both come with smooth fronts and temples with that surprise effect. Spots or stripes – all prints are reminiscent of watercolour paintings and both begin softly at the middle of the frame to become more and more powerful. Fronts are available in chocolate brown, midnight blue, black or raspberry red. SAFILO The Hugo Boss winter 2016 eyewear collection includes seven sunglasses and optical frames for women and men that highlight the brand’s elegant and subtle aesthetic. Visit www.mexx-eyes.com for more information. This includes the BOSS 0724/S sunglasses and BOSS 0725 optical square-shaped frames for men, which are lightweight and offer maximum flexibility while being resistant because of an innovative injected plastic material. Both frames come in classic and subtle shades. Visit www.safilo.com for more information. Optical Prism | March 2016 11
