Marine Serre’s Swirl sunglasses are deeply rooted in the past, and we’re not just talking about the fact that they’re a reinterpretation of one of optical label Vuarnet’s archive frames (which is a story in itself). No--the oval-framed pair is actually crafted using natural, biodegradable and recycled materials, taking resources sourced from previous fashion ventures on a new journey (poolside, hopefully). The slim silhouette is detailed with the brand’s iconic moon motif at the temples.
Marine Serre’s critically-acclaimed collections have a cult following. A completely new, radically independent brand, with a hybrid mixture of classic French couture shapes, sportswear references and fabrics, the brand pioneers the production of new garments based on end-of-life materials.
