1983-2013 : three decades come together in the brand’s 2014 sunglasses collection

image002Celebrating 30 years of iconic design in 2013 – first with the ‘Look Beyond’ project and then a VIP party in Milan – Police concluded its anniversary year with a new collection inspired by the brands icons of the past.

Over the brand’s 30 years, Police has risen to fame as an eye-wear icon. From its first eye-wear designs recalling those worn by American policemen, to today’s status as true lifestyle brand, the Police DNA can now be found across fragrances, watches, bags and finally clothing.

Established in 1983, in the year that saw the transformation of sunglasses from tools serving a practical function to fashion accessories, Police, a 100% Italian brand owned by the De Rigo Group, continues to identify itself with the tastes of different generations all over the world, without sacrificing its distinct identity and metropolitan edge.

The new icons collection demonstrates with a showcase of new interpretations of old codes for a truly timeless yet modern range, evocative of signature styles from Police’s 30 year presence.

Three decades come together in this modern day retrospective collection, reflective of the decades the brand has lived and grown through – the Eighties, the Nineties and the Noughties. Each style presented in the collection is distinguished by the three different moments identified with various stages in Police’s rise to success.
