Acne Studios has a new eyewear for 2016, including brand new styles and updates on the classic pieces. This is eyewear with particular character, part of the on-going development of new expressions at Acne Studios. The collection will be available in Acne Studios stores worldwide, as well as on acnestudios.com, from 16 March 2016.

Two new styles, Indy and Charge, play with the classic teardrop shaped lens.

Indy has an acetate frame in either black or turtle that thickens at the sides and over the bridge.

Charge has a thinner acetate frame that follows the line of the lens, and comes in contrasting combinations of frame and lens – such as a pink frame with grey lenses, or light beige with green. Both styles have defining metal rivets to attach the stems to the frame.

The bookish style Frame, the original eyewear design from Acne Studios, is one of the key designs. Frame, together with Library, gets an update with new metal rectangular tabs in the corners of the acetate – a new signature of Acne Studios eyewear.
