Andy Wolf Expands AWearness

Andy Wolf is expanding its AWearness collection—first launched in 2021 with acetate frames—with the addition of new metal models and matching sun clips. These latest pieces are designed to be versatile, durable, and aesthetically refined. The new metal styles strike a balance between classic and contemporary design, while the acetate frames pay homage to Andy Wolf’s earliest collections. Thoughtfully crafted details—such as fine faceting, embossed textures, and custom-developed hinge systems—transform each frame into a three-dimensional design object. A recurring pattern inspired by the letters “A” and “W” runs throughout the collection, giving each frame a distinct visual identity—even without a visible logo. Every component of the AWearness frames is manufactured in Europe, from the temples to the hinges, with the sole exception of the titanium nose pads, which are produced in Japan. The new models come in four timeless colorways: rose gold, gold, black-silver, and gun matte. Each frame includes a matching sun clip that can instantly transform it into a pair of sunglasses. All frames in the AWearness collection are crafted from fully recycled materials such as Acetate Renew and monel, reinforcing the brand’s commitment to sustainability.

Vogue Eyewear continues its exciting journey with digital content creator and brand ambassador Gamze Erçel, a partnership that began last year. As the brand celebrates its second year with Erçel, it unveils its striking Spring/Summer 2025 collection, set to define the season’s sunglasses trends. Returning to the camera in Milan with a professional team, Erçel shared her thoughts on the collaboration: “Last year, we began a wonderful, fashion-focused partnership full of surprises with Vogue Eyewear. For the second time, I returned to Milan for the shoot, working with a fantastic team. This year’s collection features pieces that are even more special and bold. I’m sure fashion lovers will find a model that inspires them and allows them to express themselves more freely. I can’t wait for you to discover the new collection.” The new season’s sunglasses come in soft transparent lens tones, while frames in various shapes stand out with vibrant colors. Fine-lined metal designs meet unconventional silhouettes, and chunky acetate models are finished with bold temples and tone-on-tone lenses. For the first time, the collection includes youth-oriented designs, offering smaller frame sizes that defy age and boundaries. Among these is the oval-shaped VO5625S, which combines mixed materials and classic-contemporary colors, giving wearers the chance to make a big impact with a minimalist frame. Rich in texture and style, the design is paired with matching temples and brightly tinted lenses. Another standout, the VO5637SU model from the Spring/Summer 2025 collection, features a narrow cat-eye silhouette that nods to the golden age of cinema. Inspired by the past and reimagined through modern touches, this striking pair is ideal for those seeking a bold and confident look, available in classic or colorful lens options. The highlight of the new collection is geometry. The VO5642SU introduces wide-set lenses and sharply angled, ultra-wide temples. Beyond its daring profile, this bold design combines classic and contemporary hues with mismatched or tone-on-tone lenses, positioning itself as a true style inspiration for the season.
