Lee Alexander McQueen, founder of the luxury fashion house Alexander McQueen The House, born in 1992, launched its first luxury – and sunglasses - accessories line in 2000. Every McQueen piece is iconic. The sunglasses, from cat eyes to aviators, are unquestionably elegant and suitable for every style; with each set crafted in Italy from materials of the highest quality. Aside from clothing lines, McQueen sunglasses follow a more sober style whilst paying homage to the house's distinguishing features: oversize cuts, bold frames, applications such as studs or skulls and bugs and colored lenses ranging from the darkest shades to brighter, more colourful pieces. Undoubtedly, these are must haves for anyone who wants to stand from the crowd, yet without being excessive and retaining a certain air of subtlety, with the unique nature of the pieces and luxury details making the difference on every outfit, succeeding even to embellish the simplest looks. Celebrities afficionado's of McQueens eyepieces include Lady Gaga, Michelle Obama and Kate Blanchett.
