The Bold and the Bejeweled: Sospiri Power Models

October 28, 2024

This season, Sospiri® stuns with three models that are destined to turn heads and make a statement wherever they go.  Swarovski® crystals are displayed prominently on each frame, and Italian Mazzuchelli acetate gives each frame its smooth and polished finish.  Each piece notates its unique number in the series of 100 made per batch. These striking designs command attention through their crystals, laser work and unmistakable quality.  

Zora

Firstly, leading the pack, Zora exudes boldness as a killer optical or sunglass choice. All of Zora’s color options feature a dazzling array of 461 hand-placed crystals that enhance the frame’s front and rims. The temples show off Sospiri’s iconic stamp: an elaborate pattern of laser work reminiscent of Venetian architectural elements, elegantly layered with the smallest of crystals.  

Zora’s color choices complement every style. The classic combination of black with light chrome and clear crystals and silver laser work trends dramatic, as does black paired with rose gold. An ivory option lightens the mood with golden shadow crystals. Additionally, other color options include tortoise with light topaz crystals, black with hematite crystals and translucent champagne with smoked topaz crystals. 

Lyra

Second off, and not looking to be eclipsed, power model Lyra captivates with a staggering 790 crystals. The largest of the three frames, with an eye size of 55, this dramatic sunglass is wrapped in crystals from front to temple. The dynamic hand-placement of three different crystal sizes and accompanying complimentary laser work give the frame depth, dimension and an air of sophistication.  

Lyra’s color combinations are bold with a purpose. A two-toned rich red color with iridescent crystals and silver laser work is truly stunning, and a tortoise option with smoked topaz and amber crystals is a timeless one. Finally, a combination of tortoise with gold and light topaz crystals and yellow laser work is both bright and brilliant.  

Malika

Finally, rounding out this trio of power models is Malika, a fresh face making an unforgettable arrival onto the scene. Trendy and classic all at once, Malika’s 324 crystals are nestled in intricate floral and geometric laser work. Both the temples and sides of the frame give the delicate pattern a moment to shine, while Malika’s front is a testament to Sospiri’s reputation of executing crystals with class. 

Malika is featured in some of Sospiri’s most notable color options as well as a few new favorites. A Havana tortoise color with bronze crystals conjures dreams of summer beaches and days on the sand, while a black paired with blue crystals and laser work introduces a fun and vivid pop of color. Another pairing of pink tortoise with smoked grey and antique pink crystals is vibrant and enchanting. In addition, other color choices include black with hematite crystals and a translucent green- grey option.  

Lyra, Zora and Malika are all distinctly powerful in their own ways, but the one thing they have in common is that they never shy away from expressing pure confidence and style.
