De Rigo has signed a worldwide licence agreement with the luxury British brand dunhill for the design, production and distribution of dunhill branded optical frames and sunglasses.
The 120 year old brand is owned by the Richemont Group and is well known around the globe for its top end products in the menswear, leather goods, accessories and gift sectors.
The first collection will be ready for the 2016 spring season and distribution will be through high end optical practices, exclusive departments stores and dunhill boutiques.
De Rigo managing director Michele Aracri said he was pleased with the partnership. ‘We will use De Rigo’s expertise to develop an eyewear collection reflecting the brand’s commitment to quality and heritage with a contemporary sophistication of design,’ he commented.
