For Spring/Summer 2025, Blackfin expands their Atlantic collection with two striking new eyewear designs. A blend of East Coast modernity and timeless Anglo-Saxon elegance. Crafted entirely in Italy from a solid block of titanium, the new styles showcase bold linearity and a sculptural precision that reflects the brand’s unmistakable aesthetic: expressive yet refined. The two new models, Knightsbridge and Mayfair, bring unique interpretations of squared silhouettes. Knightsbridge features a strong, straight top rim that exudes confidence and urban sophistication, while Mayfair offers a contemporary twist on a classic design, elevating elegance through subtle detail. Both styles are available in the exclusive Silk Feel finish, delivering a unique tactile experience, and come in the refined Black Edition and sun versions with colored lenses. Atlantic’s signature integrated rim lock and hinge system allows for easy pantoscopic adjustment, while the silicone nose pads offer omnidirectional flexibility for a personalized, ultra-comfortable fit.

Debuting new sports-oriented ophthalmic and sun designs for Spring/Summer 2025, Article One continues to propose a new look for sports eyewear, merging athletic sensibility with contemporary design. The frames are designed for individuals who “view style as an active expression of identity” and those who wish to wear attractive finely-tuned, design-oriented eyewear with heightened functionality for sports. Chief Creative Officer, Ogi Eyewear, the parent company of Article One, David Duralde says: “Spring brings a sharp mix of performance and polish from Article One ophthalmic frames and sunglasses-stylish double bridges, rich geometric shapes, and grip fit technology, built for active wearers who won’t compromise on aesthetics.” Reflecting the seasonal shift to sunnier days, the new colour palette delivers freshness and balance—supporting Article One’s continued focus on intentional living and enduring design. Described as the ‘cutest’ addition to the sunglasses line at Article One, the Meadow sunglasses have a round shape combined with a slightly upswept end piece to create a subtle feminine elegance. The frame features a variety of special details including the brand’s signature adjustable nosepads. All Article One frames are handmade in Japan, where traditional craftsmanship and modern innovation come together to ensure exceptional quality and detail.

Luxury eyewear house Ahlem has introduced the Paris Collection, described by the company as a powerful statement of technical mastery and refined design. Marrying advanced technology with timeless aesthetics, the limited-edition frames are characterised by an ambitious design using cutting-edge techniques. At the heart of the collection are the models Paris 01 and Paris 02, two frames that exemplify Ahlem’s commitment to beauty and functionality. Inspired by fine watchmaking and defined by an uncompromising pursuit of innovation, the collection aims to establish a new benchmark in craftsmanship and design. Model Paris 01 offers a rounded silhouette and dynamic contrasts, while model Paris 02 reinterprets this approach with a more architectural, rectangular form. Both frames are designed with subtle yet innovative details: V-groove lens channels for a seamless fit, a concealed rim lock system for enhanced elegance, and a double-rim construction, with each ring plated in a bath of precious metal, creating a two-tone finish.  The campaign imagery, captured by photographer Lara Giliberto, has been designed to bring the spirit of the collection to life by highlighting the refined interplay of materials, form, and the distinctive double rim effect.
