A pair of designer sunglasses can easily become one of the most expensive accessories in your wardrobe. With sunglasses priced at hundreds and even thousands, there’s evidence aplenty that a good designer will never lack for work.
A pair of Moss Lipow sunglasses
New York artist Moss Lipow may not have been trained in the design of eyewear, but that hasn’t stopped him from producing a variety of uniquely eccentric sunglasses. One of those designs, framed in ostrich and alligator leather and priced at $3,800, has become one of the most expensive pairs of sunglasses in the world. Lipow, a former student of NYU’s film school, has a broad visual arts background and can reasonably claim to have the largest collection of vintage 20th century eyewear in the world; his collection includes over 3,000 different frames. For the most part, his inspiration comes from early rock n’ rollers and that preference can easily be seen in his favorite piece from his collection—a pair of Buddy Holly style frames from the 50s that he used to wear regularly.
Dolce and Gabanna’s elite sunglasses
Completely blowing those pricey frames out of the water, Dolce and Gabanna recently released a pair of sunglasses whose price easily overshadowed that of Lipow’s $3,800 shades. The brown-tinted shades are framed in gold and appear to have the brand’s logo written on the arms—in diamonds.
If you find yourself in the market for the world’s most expensive sunglasses, there are two things you should keep in mind. First, the Dolce and Gabanna product number is DG2027B. Second, you’re going to be spending $383,609 on your luxury eyewear.
