MILAN—At a press conference held at the Brunello Cucinelli Showroom in Milan, Italy, Rocco Basilico, chief executive officer of Oliver Peoples, and Brunello Cucinelli, founder, executive president and creative director of Brunello Cucinelli, announced a new, exclusive partnership. This partnership is the first collaboration and eyewear collection for the Brunello Cucinelli brand. Inspired by Solomeo, Italy and the glamour of classic Italian cinema, “the five-style collaboration represents a harmonious expression of the meticulous craftsmanship, exquisite aesthetics and understated approach to luxury of both brands. The details and colors were exclusively designed for the collaboration and express a true artisanal craft, something that is at the heart of both Oliver Peoples and Brunello Cucinelli,” Luxottica said in a statement.

The Oliver Peoples x Brunello Cucinelli collection will be available from Brunello Cucinelli and Oliver Peoples channels as early as the end of September 2021.
