Maison Valentino builds on the success of its relaunched sun collection with the SILMO Paris 2023 debut of its Valentino Eyewear optical collection.

More than a year in the making, the all-new optical collection represents the next evolution of Valentino Eyewear and the Maison’s partnership with Swiss luxury eyewear specialists Akoni Group. The initial FW23 optical launch features a capsule collection of six styles in a total of eighteen colorways.

The Valentino Eyewear optical collection was designed and produced to meet the technical requirements of the most demanding opticians and the quality standards of their most exclusive clients. Made in Japan to exacting standards using only the finest materials, every style in the collection – from V-STUD with its iconic metal studs conveying a subtle yet irrefutable rock ‘n’ roll spirit, to the less-is-more V-DAYDREAM with its ethereal design aesthetic and classic cat-eye-shape – radiates quality and clearly yet elegantly communicates the Maison’s haute couture heritage.

Named in celebration of timeless Valentino design codes, core values, the Valentino Eyewear optical collection embraces the dreamy design aesthetic and graceful elegance on which the Valentino legend was built. Launch styles – V-STUD, V-GLASSLINER, V-DAYDREAM, V-ESSENTIAL I, V-ESSENTIAL II, and V-ESSENTIAL III – represent a coherent collection

comprised of a range of designs that will appeal to and flatter virtually all wearers, regardless of face shape.

The new Valentino Eyewear optical collection will be available from November 2023 at fine stores and eyewear boutiques worldwide.
