There are several ways in which manufacturers provide comfort and sophistication to eyewear designs. However, since the creation of rimless models, elegance and sophistication has been approached from a different angle. Rimless designs are unique to customers because they give the sensation that the user is not wearing anything. Also, these types of frames provide a feeling of freedom and simplicity. In prior years, different brands have experimented with these styles and particular variations have appeared. In this blog article we will consider some variations proposed by the two featured brands. On the one hand, we have the classical approach to rimless eyewear. This approach is presented by Silhouette Optical, which introduces SPX Folding Rimless, considered a synthetic rimless collection.  This line has eight different styles, which embody every aspect of the sophistication offered by rimless collections. This collection has important characteristics, the temples on this collection are made of SPX —Silhouette Polyamide X, which has Silhouette´s secret ingredient carefully guarded by the brand. This ingredient allows the rimless option to provide durability, shape retention and flexibility. Those interested can enjoy 8 different colors and lens shapes. On the other hand we have Sàfilo USA´s case. Using the Jimmy Choo Ophthalmic Collection, the brand has positioned itself strongly, while showing the different rim possibilities a single line can provide. The collection has  five plastics and two metal/plastic combinations. The eyeglasses on this collection come in semi rimless, rimless and full rim options. The elegance the rimless option provides is accentuated by the use of Jimmy choo´s logo. Finally, the inspiration for this collection comes from Jimmy Choo´ shoes and handbag collection, reason why its rimless option plays a crucial role in showing the sophistication Choo´s design can have.
