How to get through summer in style? This much in advance: With sunglasses in retro design, you are always right – no matter which trends there are at the moment. The Black-Forest spectacles manufactory Lunor revives the golden age of Hollywood with its Clip-On collection. One of the biggest screen icons at the time was James Dean that was not only celebrated for his movies but also for his distinctively casual style. Apart from jeans, a white shirt, and a black leather jacket, clip-ons were his signature look. It is not really surprising that many photos show him wearing clip-on sunglasses that soon became established as legendary fashion accessories, still setting a statement today.
Symbiosis of aesthetics and practicality
The filigree clip-on models by Lunor transform corrective frames into sunglasses that exude the inimitable charm of the fifties with one flick of the wrist. Thanks to its flexible design with ultrathin stainless-steel frame, the Clip-On sits securely and pleasantly light on the glasses. And with 100% UV protection (UV 400) as well as anti-glare protection of category 3, the view is unclouded on sunny days.
These Clip-Ons are elaborately manufactured by hand in Germany and available for various models of the acetate lines A5 and A6. Those who prefer warm colors take the antique-gold variant with brown tinted glasses. Those who favor cool color shades can decide on the model in antique silver with green tinted glasses.
Black Forest goes Hollywood
Frames by Lunor are a homage to the old-time art of spectacle making, a clear commitment to the quality label “made in Germany” and quintessential timeless classics. That much understatement also got around Hollywood: Uma Thurman, Johnny Depp, Oprah Winfrey, Harrison Ford, and Meg Ryan are just some of the stars that can be seen wearing frames by Lunor. For Apple founder Steve Jobs, the rimless model “Lunor Classic Round” was part of his basic outfit for years.
