Into the shade

Bulgari may be known for its beautiful baubles but its line of celebrity-worthy sunglasses is just as covetable. Most of us will never own a piece of Bulgari jewellery but we can show off the brand's famous aesthetic with sunglasses inspired by its well-known motifs. This season, the ellipse, one of the jewellery house's signature shapes, has been transposed in crystal onto the arms of a pair of special-edition acetate sunglasses (below; HK$5,400). For something slightly more subtle, opt for deep purple or black acetate sunglasses with a single, crystal-encrusted square on the arms (above; HK$4,500). The collection is available at all Bulgari locations, including in Chater House, Central, tel: 2523 8057.
