ROMEO GIGLI RG181/S Sunglasses

Please do not use this image without my prior consent.

 

Year 1999 I found ROMEO GIGLI. It was my first time heard of the brand and fall in love with it ever since.

 

RG181/S is a work of art. The frame is made of Titanium with gunmetal finish. Purple translucent lens all around even on the temples. Notice the curvature at the edge of the frame and the lens curve with it. It is very difficult to achieve. Logos are printed very lightly on the temple lens. When design is unique, logo serve no practical purpose. People will recognize the design and the brand, the logo just a hint for the unknown.

 

The frame construct very sturdy although the sunglasses is delicate the eyes. A well made, well design modern eyewear.

 

U2 Vocalist Bono has RG181 in blue.
