With Le Club de Lecture, the FW 23/24 campaign, GIGI Studios creates a meeting place for reading, listening, and exploring the world from different perspectives.
The setting: an abandoned Parisian library. The protagonists: nine unique people who come together and connect thanks to their passion for books.
Le Club de Lecture, the FW 23/24 campaign by GIGI Studios, invites us to be spectators of the conversation that this group will have about their favourite books and wants to highlight the importance that literature can have as a trigger for empathy and self-discovery, and the need to take a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life to be inspired and fully present in the moment.
VANGUARD COLLECTION FW 23/24:
The new GIGI Studios collection presents meticulously crafted models in the Barcelona atelier. Their delicate details and handcrafted finishes reiterate the brand’s commitment to exceptional design.
The new designs of the VANGUARD collection are characterised by geometric shapes and bold volumes in natural Italian acetate. BONNIE is an aviator model in an innovative colour palette.
The VANGUARD Optical FW 23/24 collection consists of eight powerful, uniquely styled acetate designs created to enhance all aspects of each personality. PHOEBE stands out for its two-layer acetate mix, producing unique transitions and gradients.
GIGI STUDIOS MEN FW 23/24:
GIGI Studios expands the MEN collection of optical and sun contemporary designs. A commitment to purity and character is reflected in the MELVILLE optical model, with a thick acetate rim and a slightly geometric shape.
BRYANT, one of the new acetate sun designs, features thick acetate rims and defined shapes. As with the entire MEN sun collection, the CR39 lenses are polarized.
