For a brand that has defined shaded cool for nearly 100 years, its hard to improve on what youve been doing so well for so long.
Yet Persol, the Italian eyewear company, didnt peak during the years when Steve McQueen couldnt be seen without a pair of Persols.
Theyre continuing to show their relevance by reaching back into their own history, and showing why vintage cool will always be atop the trends.
The new Persol Film Noir Edition Eyewear takes some of Persols most iconic frames and gives them some special edition styling.
Namely, the gangster, the detective, the reporter and the femme fatale, a collection of four frames inspired by the characters and iconography of mid-century film noir.
The blacked-out appeal of the Film Noir Edition Eyewear is one thing, but were in love with the art deco details apparent in each.
We know what well be wearing this summer…
