The Balenciaga Light line is not only rimless and set with extra-slim metal arms, its end tips are empty loops, adding only enough weight to keep them on. The BB logo hides the two folding hinges throughout the collection which includes BB0111S and BB0113O.
Symmetrically folding BB logo golden hinges separate tapering arms from a vintage-inspired frame characterising the Dynasty line, as seen on BB0102SA and BB0104O. Named for its reference to the 1980s opulent aesthetic, both the Dynasty and Light lines feature in the brands' FW20 campaign.
The Balenciaga Tag line includes BB0117O and BB0116SA, named after the rubberised logo bar on each thin metal arm which is inspired by anti-theft tags often strung into precious store items.
Evocative of the angularity of modern archiecture, the Balenciaga Cut line (BB0097S) almost appears sliced from paper, accentuated with a bold logo in colour contrast. Tapered temples feature black colour fading detail to further enhance distinctiveness.
For a look that provides full coverage, the Balenciaga Mask line shields the eyes from all directions by curving a continuous rounded lens around the face, with varied logos in precious materials.
