Giorgio Armani announced its Frames of Life Spring/Summer 2014 campaign, inspired by the “fragments” of daily life. The video follows a man and a woman as they share their first gaze and continues to when they finally start a relationship, all of which were reflected in the other’s lenses. The campaign was shot in black and white to create a cinematic narrative that highlights how glasses catch every sensation and emotion in any given moment.
The inspiration of the Frames of Life glasses featured in the campaign was elegance, small masterpieces made of unusual materials and exclusive finishing techniques, a perfect blend of design and quality taking on the form of clean shapes. The collection consists of four styles and each frame is completed by the “Frames of Life” logo, printed on the inside of the left temple.
Life is made up of a succession of moments, by different sensations and emotions, and our glasses accompany along this journey like an object you cannot part with. Rather than a mere frame with which we look at the world, they are the tool that helps us to live every moment intensely – perceiving even the slightest nuance.

AR6018TK – AR5027TK
This oval shaped optical frame is a revisited version of the iconic Giorgio Armani glasses. Created in the shape of the infinity symbol and made of thin gold plated titanium with a matte finish, it recalls the first model of the Giorgio Armani collection launched in 1989. Bridging the gap between the past and future, this new version is made contemporary by its use of titanium, an extremely lightweight and resistant material, and the inclusion of a special patented hinge first introduced in 2013. The sun version has hydrophobic and anti-reflective olive green lenses.
The model is also offered in a gold version that celebrates its reintroduction after 25 years.
These models come in their own dedicated packaging.
