Schiaparelli has teased us with sunglasses and eyewear since 2020. As of now (2024), we think their pieces are only available in their stores or select authorized dealers. Not on their website.
Here's one ☝️
We really like the gold tones and surrealist elements like the eyes.
Here's another from their Measuring Tape collection. From their site. *No, its not listed for sale* Only a banner image.
Elsa Schiaparelli started her fashion house in 1927. Worked with many noted artists. In the early 1950's she released really unique eyewear pieces for runway art's sake, but also functional for daily use. Mostly Cat-Eye shapes.
She closely worked with and inspired Salvador Dali, Pablo Picasso, Leonor Fini, Andy Warhol, and more.
On the left side☝️, you can see some of her earlier eyewear concepts.
Some of Elsa's past works shown below, including the bizarre shoe hat. She was so unique and confident in creating absolutely new ideas.
Today:
Since 2019, Daniel Roseberry was appointed as Art Director for the fashion house. And all we can say is, we approve! He's keeping Schiaparelli unique and shocking! Hopefully we'll see more success from them, and more eyewear pieces!
