GIGI STUDIOS: Inspired by the colours and textures of fruit

The Odd Fruits Collection, launched by GiGi Studios this season, is inspired by the expressive power of fruit and its wealth of colours and textures. It comprises six acetate models, three optical designs and three sunglasses.
With their intense tones, unexpected colour combinations, strange shapes and diverse textures, fruits are a constant source of inspiration for their expressive and evocative power, says the company. All the details and nuances are the epitome of beauty, and that natural richness has become the essence of the Odd Fruits Collection.
The three Odd Fruits optical designs –models Fresh, Acid and Tender – are available in an innovative colour palette. Acidic and luminous colours are combined with translucent acetates and subtle laminations on the inside. Model Fresh stands out for its oversized and slightly geometric shape; model Acid is an oversized design with laminations on the sides that give it a unique character; finally, model Tender is a square model with thin ridges.
The chromatic and formal richness of fruits is emphasised in the three sunglasses, which present inspiring silhouettes and colours. The oval-shaped model Bitter stands out for the variety of thicknesses and laminations that add depth and new nuances to this design. Model Lush is a more rectangular model with the same side and top laminations, and model Citrus is a hexagonal design. The collection has been worked on with bezels that add lightness to the new designs. Their CR39 lenses have been developed in new tones to match the acetates.
