Thierry Lasry
With a father optician and a mother designer, eyewear was obviously destined for french designer Thierry Lasry … Launched in late 2006, the self entitled brand is based on the concept of « futuristic vintage ». Thierry gets his inspirations from vintage designs and materials but incorporate an updated modern and avant-gardiste touch to those. Entirely hand-made in France with the best craftsmanship techniques and traditional know-how, the sunglasses only use acetates coming from the old Italian house mazzucchelli, no over-sized logos appear on the temples : creativity and quality serve the trademark of the brand. The brand style extends to the frames names since they all end up with a « y », mimicking his name and last name ... Leading to tricky names such as « pimpy », « vulgary », « porny », « exhiby », "attracty », « hooky » or « obsessy » … fans include celebrities like Madonna, Rihanna, Eva Mendes, Dita Von Teese, Jessica Alba, Alessandra Ambrosio, Hilary Duff, Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie, Anne Hathaway, Alicia Keys … |
