Prada Sunglasses

Since 1999, Prada - one of the world's most respected luxury designer fashion brands - has offered a unique line of elegant, bold and funky sunglasses that start trends affect the world of sunglasses design for years to come. This designer eyewear is known for provocatively simple designs, with classic colors including browns, grays, blacks, creams and greens that give a distinguished look that could only come from Milan, Italy's Prada. Framelot.com carries nearly 50 different eyewear designs of this brand, each with their own color combinations and polarization options.

About Prada Sunglasses

Originally founded in 1913 in Milan, Italy by Mario and Martino Prada, the brand offers an incredible image of forward-thinking fashion design and unmatched elegance. Although the brand originally specialized exclusively in leather goods such as handbags and English steamer trunks, the course of the company changed when Mario's daughter Luisa Prada took over the business after his passing, and changed yet again when Luisa's daughter Miuccia Prada took the reins in 1978.

The company spent the 1980s developing totes and backpacks, and opened its second boutique in Milan in 1983. A shoe line came in 1984, along with classic Prada handbags in 1985. In 1989, the company released ready-to-wear clothing collections for women, noted by fashion critics for its simple colors, clean lines and elegant, wearable fabrics.

Finally, after enjoying success as a designer fashion brand, the company joined forces with the De Rigo group to develop a line of luxury eyewear in 1999, including sunglasses and eyeglasses. This designer eyewear is now among the most prized in the world, highly regarded for its unique styles that influence other brands year after year. When the brand comes out with a new sunglasses design, you can safely bet that other designers will try to mimic those designs the following year. But there's no disputing the authenticity of the original designs that come only from Prada.
