21.12.2010 Alfred Dunhill Eyewear by Rodenstock in the USA
The sunglasses collection by luxury British
men's brand Alfred Dunhill will now be available from
the acclaimed American department store Neiman Marcus. The range
will initially be available in six selected shops – Beverly
Hills (California), Las Vegas (Nevada), Northbrook (Illinois),
Coral Gables (Florida), Houston (Texas) and Paramus (New Jersey)
– but further expansion to all Neiman Marcus stores in the
United States is already being planned.
The
exclusive cooperation between Rodenstock and dunhill continues
after great success across markets in Europe, Asia and the
Middle East.
The range is divided into
three lines, based on the different distinctive features of the
dunhill brand. The "casual" line features
acetate and metal spectacles in the typical
"Brit" look with different material
combinations such as with model D 1009, retro-style sunglasses
with striking acetate on the upper edge of the frame and metal
on the lower edge. Other "casual" sunglasses
models give the popular aviator shape a modern interpretation
with a double bridge to provide a choice for the young British
look. The models from the "classic" collection
appeal with their authentic and timeless value. Luxurious
decorative elements such as diamond-cut surfaces on the sides or
painted bridges as well as fine materials like titanium and wood
make the classical spectacles into a very special accessory. The
sunglasses in the "sport" line, on the other
hand, are convincing with their dynamic design and clear lines.
Different surfaces and carbon fibres integrated into rubber, as
well as sporty, curved lenses, emphasise the claim of being a
luxury brand even among sporty
models.
Timeless masculine colours dominate
the Alfred Dunhill collection across all three lines –
specifically different shades of brown and grey, as well as
Havana, black and gun. Each of the men's spectacles is
available in three colours. The vintage logo of Alfred Dunhill
placed on the sides of all frames stands for the luxury of this
British brand.
The Alfred Dunhill
spectacles have already been available since spring/summer 2010
worldwide from specialised opticians. There is a specially
adapted collection for the Asian customer.
