Delia
The Delia gives you unwavering style with its chic curves and vibrant colors, providing shade from the summer rays. This eye-catching design brings back the 90’s fashion flair with its vibrant acetate colorways and oversized silhouette, adding a mod edge. Whether you're reading Valley of the Dolls or flipping through a fashion magazines poolside, the Delia sunglasses epitomize summertime cool. The fluid and swooping lines, combined with bold and tapered temples, keep this frame balanced and flattering.
The Delia is part of our Women’s Coalition Initiative, an ongoing series of partnerships with women-led businesses across fashion, art, and culture. Our collaboration with writer, art historian, and cultural critic Sarah Hoover will be contributing a percentage of sales to the Art Production Fund. Through this support we are excited to help advance the work APF is doing across the US in creating public accessible art for all.
