Designed by British designer Nicholas Kirkwood, for accessories label Pollini, this second line of sunglasses now pay tribute to Sophia Loren, the Italian actress with the only cat eyes. Called the ‘Sophia’, these cat-eye frames complete with eyelashes, will surely spark conversation. Available in black, baby blue + mint green, the collection will also feature two other models, the ‘Retrocool’ with classic round frames + the oversized square-shaped ‘Debby’, which will be released soon.
The sunnies are now available in Pollini stores + online in June.

I live in the US and have been waiting for The Sophia to be released. Can you tell me where I can purchase them?
Hi Deb, unfortunately this collabo came out in 2013 and the bit of recon I did on your behalf resulted in other shades, but not the ones I wrote about here. Sorry.
