There are two distinct sectors - 'Discreet Woman' and 'Accessory Woman', with a strong showing of plastics and acetates in both, according to Norville Eyewear's Bruce Richardson.

Femininity is the order of the day with Discreet Woman, with pastel colours, tone on tone and discreet logos.
An example is Fantaisie, with a Swarovski crystal flower motif in colour options of gold, fuschia and nut.

Accessory Woman is a stronger, contemporary mood, with bolder colouring and highly identifiable logos.

Paris, model 2525, is an acetate with eight scattered crystal inserts of varying sizes on each temple in tortoise/crystal, black and plum/purple.

The company added that luxury support material reflected the positioning of the collection for women in their middle years.
