Lenses

Original Lanvin factory lenses

Because of the continuous shield construction, conventional lens-width and bridge measurements do not translate cleanly to this design.

Why We Love Them | Era & Relevance

This is the kind of Lanvin eyewear that makes the case for archival Y2K design.

The LV 2135 combines a massive uninterrupted shield with exposed geometric metalwork, oversized temples and industrial architectural detailing. Instead of relying on a traditional eyewear silhouette, Lanvin effectively built the frame around the lens.

The result is unmistakably of the late-1990s/early-2000s luxury futurist movement: bold, technical and deliberately excessive.

What elevates this example is the combination of unworn condition, original Lanvin shield lens, C01 black colorway and French manufacture. Complete, untouched examples of statement eyewear from this period are becoming increasingly difficult to find.
