FGX International introduces the Corinne McCormack sun collection. Designed for women 35 and older, the collection incorporates several iconic elements from the brand’s ophthalmic collection including McCormack’s leopard pattern zyl and jewelry-inspired “X.” All frames are Rx-friendly and allow women to make a statement about their personality with fashionable shapes and classic colorations. The collection also includes six progressive-friendly styles that include rich zyl and metal and zyl combinations with CR-39 lenses.

PHILOSOPHY: “The launch of the Corinne Sun Rx collection is a logical extension of the Corinne McCormack brand,” says Kristin Fontaine, brand manager at FGX International. “The collection is inspired by Corinne’s love for vintage styling, with a fresh approach to color and shape. The extension of signature zyls and design elements from the optical styles to the sun styles create a fully integrated collection that we’re thrilled to introduce.”
