This collection, inspired by the luxurious settings of the series, features frames in a range of vibrant colors designed to reflect the sun-soaked atmosphere of the show’s iconic destinations. As such, the lineup includes three distinct styles, each representing a key location from the series.
The 'Italy' glasses offer a classic, European-inspired look with thick frames and a timeless silhouette. The 'Hawaii' glasses feature "tortoiseshell frames with decorative accents, including golden plumeria clusters and pineapples, reflecting the tropical island setting." Lastly, the 'Thailand' glasses, crafted with light green crystal frames and golden pikul flowers, are a sophisticated choice inspired by the series' Thai backdrop.
