“My signature style has always been about a head to toe look,” said Sui. “I love accessories because they give you even more opportunity to add personality to your look. Even if you have the most amazing dress, inevitably everyone will be looking at your face, so great sunglasses or eyeglasses can make such a statement.”
Drawing inspiration from the designer’s fashion and accessories, Anna Sui Eyewear incorporates the same details that have defined the brand since its beginning including the signature rosebud, Anna’s favorite butterfly motif and classic fretwork design.
“We incorporated several intricate design details in the frames such as the rose and thorns pattern in a classic fretwork design, a mesh lace pattern and laser engraved detail,” Sui said. “These details add a vintage feel to the frames that matches the vintage feel of many of my fashion designs.” ■ ■
