Folding In Love by Prada


Folding sunglasses have fast become a must- have for the travel junkies among us. 2 seasons ago, Ray-Ban reintroduced the folding wayfarer which was a hit amongst the fashion forward and avid travelers- finally a pair of sunglasses which could easily be folded away into your shirt pocket or clutch as the sun goes down!

Designer brands such as Burberry and Prada soon followed the lead and introduced the market to fold-ups in bright and bold colours by Burberry and classic oversized ladies folding sunglasses by Prada.

Prada fold-up, introduced as part of the “Folding In Love’ project, the story as released by Prada goes as follows:

An interplay of reality and virtual games: Prada Presents Folding in Love.

Folding In Love is a Prada project that tells the imaginary world of folding glasses through a simulated videogame.
It is the brief and intense adventure of an object, in this case sunglasses, which is the flying lead character in a multi-level surreal journey. As befits the classic ‘arcade’ videogames, after travelling through multiple worlds in the Prada universe, the adventure ends in a romantic conclusion.
Black and white chequered floors, coloured trolleys, alphabet-shaped tricks, backpack snap-hooks, crocodile minibags and countless other elements from the Prada collections mark the
game's space, thus outlining a visual universe that spans digital fantasy and perfect 3D rendering.
The hero object is the new Prada Folding Sunglasses, a design accessory that transforms, flies, hovers, rotates, bends to overcome barriers and dodge hurdles, all the way to the videogame's grand finale, where it conquers the princess – the ladies' version of the sunglasses.
The song that forms the soundtrack of Folding in Love is “Ace of Hz” from the album “Gravity the Seducer”.




Get your hands on a pair of fold-ups now- it is the most convenient travel accessory! Visit your closest Sunglass Hut store, for more info contact: info@sunglasshut.co.za

Sunglass Hut presents 'Mad about Medusa'

It’s ‘see or be seen’ at Sunglass Hut this season, with the introduction of the distinctive Versace Medusa collection.


With the signature Versace icon emblazoned on the temple, it is the unique pattern reflected on the lenses that put these sunglasses into a league of their own. The pattern is made up of the Medusa seal, Versace’s famous logo that was inspired by Medusa in classic Greek Mythology.

Subtle yet effective, the new collection is defined by bold colours that have been interpreted into modern metal frames where the Medusa reflection is ultimate temptress.
The Medusa symbol represents the singular Versace style across the globe, securing its place as one of the most famous fashion brands in the world. In true Versace spirit, this new Medusa collection offers luxury, high-fashion and ultra-indulgence with a twist.

The Versace Medusa Collection will be available at selected Sunglass Hut stores from February 2012.
