AM Eyewear Heads to the Coast

AM Eyewear – an original Australian eyewear brand – has launched a new collection with unique colour combinations inspired by Australia’s beaches and coastline.

The new styles bring a variety of exclusive silhouettes, designed to suit all face shapes in full acetate frames and 18 K gold plated titanium combinations.

Mixed acetates are the highlight of this collection. Featured across all styles, you’ll find contrasted temples and laminating on the fronts, and original colours created by layering two different acetates, such as the sorbet colourway, a combination of grey and yellow that creates an intrinsic lilac tone.

Patty by Spectaful

Patty, from Spectaful’s latest Cloud collection release, is elegantly feminine, exceptionally lightweight, and technologically advanced.

Boasting a cats eye shape for women, the collection is characterised by distinctive angular edges that create a striking yet easy-to-wear geometric look.

“This style was supposed to be manufactured bigger than it is now, but we decided to go ahead with a design for customers with smaller faces. We have now discovered that Patty is the best-selling model of the latest release, which we could not have imagined,”
said a spokesperson from the Italian eyewear company. 

Available in a palette of chic and vivid colours, cobalt blue and deep purple have been the favourites to date.
