I still remember buying one of the last pairs made of Dior Homme BlackTie sunglasses from the Hedi Slimane era and I have to admit they got me hooked on DiorHomme BlackTie Eyewear. And now I am on the hunt for more but with so many great pairs for Summer 2014 how is a man to decide?
‘BlackTie182S’ sunglasses from the 2014 Summer advertising campaign. A rounded shape in crystal acetate with temples in stainless steel moulded with black rubber to trace the emblematic Dior Homme scar (bet you didn’t know it was called the Dior Scar). The crystal acetate is pretty fucking cool and aggressive – makes me feel like Patty Hewes.
‘BlackTie 143S‘ panto sunglasses in Optyl Blue. You can see that I still have a thing for blue.
But I have saved the best for last, the BlackTie 193S sunglasses feature entirely leather wrapped frames. Available in black, burgundy and Prussian blue (my choice). Now available in store for a respectable/ridiculous price of $860 USD. Thank you Kris.
