AMERICAN DREAM
From the “original American lifestyle brand with European sophistication,” the fall/winter 2016 GANT Eyewear collection from Marcolin mixes contemporary style with classic looks, offering three optical models for men (GA3115, GA3121, and GA3122) and two for women (GA4059 and GA4067).
Both acetate and metal are featured in rounded or rectangular silhouettes. The collection aims to be “on trend without being too forward.”
Pictured is men’s model GA3115 in White/Tortoise. The frame offers a vintage-inspired rounded front, while metal detailing and a metal nose bridge highlight the style. GA3115 is also available in two Black/Tortoise combinations.
Suggested retail pricing for the collection ranges from $172 to $199.

GLAM GIRL
De Rigo REM unveils the latest optical collection from decor design guru Jonathan Adler. The line showcases Adler’s bold design ethos inspired by mid-century art and pop culture.
The collection’s two optical models are “chic in design, playful in nature,” and all-around glamorous, according to the company.
Pictured is model JA312, a smaller, square-shaped acetate frame (sizing 49/19-135) with a marbled coloring for textural effect. Shown here in Aqua and Brown, this style is also available in Black. “Stylized minimalism meets subtle subversive flair,” for model JA105, a two-toned stainless steel frame in a rounded cat-eye shape with gold-splattered acetate temples. It is available in Black, Brown, or Purple.
The suggested retail price range is $160-$180.
