Versace Sunglasses

From LoveToKnow Sunglasses

Behind the Name

The Versace Italian fashion line was established by the talented Gianni Versace in the mid nineteen-seventies and is now a renowned international name. As the son of a dress-maker and having studied architecture, Versace had a unique skill set that brought intrigue and fresh looks into the fashion world. The sexy, stylish pieces introduced in the Versace line have been preferred by dozens of celebrities. In the early eighties, jewelry and accessories were introduced, making Versace Sunglasses available.

Although known for glamour and high couture style, the Versace sunglass collection targets comfort and eye protection as much as fashion. Smooth hinges, adjustable frames, a comfortable fit, and 100% UVA and UVB protection make these glasses as smart as they are stylish.

Where to Buy Versace Sunglasses

Versace sunglasses are available at fine department stores like Neiman Marcus, fine sunglass retailers, and online retailers like HiSunglasses.com.

Make sure the establishment you are choosing your sunglasses from is an authorized Versace dealer. If you are unfamiliar with the retailer, especially with internet stores, cross reference through other web sites and outside customer reviews and information it to make sure it is reputable.

Watching for Counterfeit Versace

There are many counterfeit scams in the areas of designer sunglasses, purses, watches and accessories. Besides making sure you are purchasing from an authorized Versace dealer, look for a guarantee on your glasses -- if it is the real product, the retailer should readily stand behind its quality. When your sunglasses arrive, check to see that they include a certificate of authenticity, case, cloth, and care pamphlet. Look for the Greek medusa symbol or logo, which appear on Versace sunglasses. The other telltale sign of counterfeit Versace glasses is the quality. If they appear flimsy, cheaply made, the hinges don't move smoothly, they are uncomfortable, or if the logo is blurred, chances are they are not the thing.
