EYEWEAR

British luxury brand Burberry introduces to Bangkok the "Burberry Splash" collection of sunglasses spring/summer 2013 for ladies and gentlemen.

Burberry Splash sunglasses for ladies and gentlemen.

For gentlemen, the sun-style Burberry Splash is influenced by the mood and attitude of the men's spring/summer 2013 "Come Rain or Shine"collection. The colour palette references the season's ready-to-wear and accessories collections including teal, dark racing green, mustard, grey orchid, metallic green, metallic purple, metallic turquoise and metallic blue. The sunglasses come with choices of scratch and shock resistant lenses, acetate or metal frames with engraved Burberry logo on the temples.

For ladies, the Burberry Splash sunglasses look metallic and colourful, influenced by Burberry's spring/summer 2013 "Corsets and Capes" womenswear collection which features super-shiny fabrics, see-through plastic and sharp silhouettes, full of bright colours such as bronze, copper, pink, lipstick red, fuchsia and more.

Instead of the standard Burberry trench with a plaid, the new collection offers metallic silk bodysuit, metallic corset seamed skirts, metallic corset seamed dresses, ruched swimsuits and cropped bomber. It gives a touch of rock star flash for Burberry ladies.

The palette for Splash sunglasses is designed to match the womenswear with colours such as khaki, metallic blue, rose, metallic gold, metallic Kelly green, metallic plum, metallic nickel, nude and violet. The frames and lenses combine the same shade in a cool and original effect.

Burberry shops are on M floor of Siam Paragon (tel 02-610-9719) and first floor of Central Chidlom (tel 02-655-7751). Prices for Splash sunglasses range from 8,500-10,500 baht.
