![]() ![]() The result is new pilot glasses in fun and attractive colour schemes: a total blue metal frame with tone-on-tone lenses, in a two-tone gold and emerald green version, and, lastly, a version with Stars&Stripes lenses, also featuring the red trim at the ends of the temples. ![]() The perfect style for combining elegance and desire to stand out and be noticed.ĮYE TO THE SKY – ST!NG expresses its creativity once more with an ironic version of an evergreen style. STAYIN’ A-LINE – The iconic semi-rectangular shape of this frame is revised to express the true essence of what makes it unusual, with a bridge resting on the upper part of the metal frame to create a geometric line contrasting with the curved shape of the lens. The rods pick up on the colour of the lower part of the frame, while the tips are coordinated with the upper part. I WALK THE LINE – Definitely outside the box, with plenty of elegance and sophistication, this two-tone style features a metal frame with slender lines drawing the profile of the top mask shape, in the same hue as the lenses. The exclusive Stars&Stripes variant features an unusual mirror effect with a tiny print. Solids and hollows created by clear and solid-coloured acetate surrounded rounded ton sur ton lenses. PICTURE IN A FRAME – The new ST!NG Eyewear model stands out for its bold, unusual details. I GET (A)ROUND – No ordinary round glasses, these frames feature classic elements such as slightly oval shape and a tortoise and black colour scheme, combined with unexpected details such as clear acetate emerging from the upper part of the front piece and the metal core visible inside the temples. Contrasting matt trim, sharp or graduated, depending on the colour, decorates the top line of the frame and enriches its vintage spirit with an unusual modern twist. SURFING USA – An acetate frame with an over-sized shape, a classic that looks good on him and her alike. OVER THE RAINBOW – A simil-pilot frame that not only never goes out of fashion but dictates the fashions: these glasses are available in classic and pastel hues, impressed on a fine metal frame – coloured or silver and gold – presenting a double bridge with curved lines making it an elegant, super-cool accessory. The subtle, delicate lines of iconic frames, embellished with high impact geometric details, featuring a fun alternation of solids and hollows in an original contemporary interpretation of vintage forms, make the collection a true passe-partout for fun, personality and unique style. Working as both an intriguing coming-of-age drama & a muted love story, Studio Ghibli's first & only TV feature still remains their least seen work and even though it is no match to their greatest efforts, it nonetheless deserves a watch or two.Ocean waves on a golden beach, the iridescent shades of seashells and red hibiscus, the pastel hues of the rainbow and sunset dissolving into starry night: as if on a distant tropical island, the colours of nature explode with energy in the new ST!NG EYEWEAR SS18 collection, releasing all their vibrant energy. On an overall scale, Ocean Waves is a gentle meditation on teen relationships and is brought to life with sufficient care, affection & sincerity. However, despite being only 72 minutes long, the film still feels somewhat stretched out. ![]() The backdrop setting is splendidly detailed at all times. Her behaviour & actions add an element of mystery in the story and it unfurls very gradually. Of the three people caught in the love triangle, it is the character of Rikako Muto who exhibits the most interesting arc. The story is grounded & lifelike, and it never tries to do more than it can handle. Its hand-drawn animation may not rival the best works of the studio but it still carries their quality stamp on it. Directed by Saeko Himuro, the plot is always focused on the characters & their relationships, all of which is portrayed in a very subtle & authentic manner. Based on the novel of the same name, the story of Ocean Waves follows a young college kid who's returning home after his first year at university but after glimpsing a familiar girl at the train station, recalls his senior year of high school when that same girl transferred to his school from Tokyo and turned his life upside down. Ocean Waves was Studio Ghibli's attempt to allow its younger staff to showcase their movie-making talents and although what they manage to put on screen is a fascinating & surprisingly mature take on high school romance, it lacks the refined quality that could have hurled it into the leagues of the studio's best works.
