Versace is a name synonymous with luxury, elegance and style. Versace sunglasses are only one component of the main Versace collection, that tend to edge towards the younger adult age group. Established in 1978 in the city of Milan in Italy, Versace now caters to two market areas, the high class and the youth markets.



Versace eyewear has a strong Mediterranean look and is typically designed with elegance and style in mind. They normally have lighter lens, which means the color progresses from dark at the top to lighter down the bottom. This makes Versace sunglasses great for bright outdoor environments.

Most Versace eyewear that is made have oversized lens. Those that are constructed with smaller style lenses are curved to fit the face properly. The half-size lenses are usually produced with large, square shaped frames which has a modern look.

In keeping with the Mediterranean look, Versace typically has neutral or dark frames colored in tan, grey, brown or black. Authentic Versace eyewear comes with the Versace brand on the temples of the sunglasses frame and this symbol is either a medusa, Greek key or a silver/gold strip with the brand name imprinted.

The Versace range of sunglasses can vary in price and normally start around $130, obviously depending on where they were purchased. Versace sunglasses can be found in most major stores as well as from a plethora of websites.

The Versace Company is still family owned, eleven years after the death of Gianni Versace, with all the shares split between three family members.

With every season, the Versace brand brings out new designs and styles to meet the continuing evolving fashions of today. These designs are produced by Donatella Versace, who took the role of design following the death of her brother. You can find these new season designs in the many stores selling Versace products.
