NAOMI CAMPBELL & JOURDAN DUNN POSE FOR BURBERRY
Comprising sunglasses and optical frames for women, the collection was inspired by the British fashion house’s gabardine fabric, a lightweight cloth which was first invented by the company’s founder Thomas Burberry in 1879 and is used on the brand’s heritage trench coats.
The material’s twill structure and soft drape features are referenced in the latest designs, which come with polished metal and acetate frames.
The color palette features signature gradient honey, gradient nude, natural horn effect, oxblood and classic black and tortoise. Styles include square, cat-eye, round or butterfly shapes.
The collection also includes a limited edition pair of shades.
Featuring an oversize round frame with an 18K gold-plated draped gabardine temple, just 100 models will be produced.
The Gabardine Collection is available from Burberry stores worldwide.
