A grosgrain ribbon, a gift plaque and a brilliant creative idea. This is how an icon is born: the Vara bow, an emblem of the brand.
Created in 1979 by Fiamma Ferragamo, eldest daughter of Salvatore, to decorate the ballerina of the same name, the Vara bow immediately established itself as one of the maison’s icons and has since been used creatively in all the accessory collections due to its clean and elegant lines.
Salvatore Ferragamo Sunglasses are launching a model which pays tribute to the Vara, featuring an acetate frame, in monochrome or a sophisticated tortoiseshell effect, with sober lines and a distinct Sixties flavour.
The sunglasses are decorated by an exquisite gold or silver coloured miniature Vara bow. The brand logo is engraved at the center of the small buckle and the bow itself is laser finished to evoke the original grosgrain ribbon. Available in a palette of black acetate, dark Havana, blue, ruby, and beige, to frame tone-on-tone fume lenses.
The Vara model will be available globally, exclusively in Ferragamo boutiques from January 2010.
In the Philippines, Salvatore Ferragamo is exclusively distributed by Stores Specialists Inc. (SSI) and is located at Power Plant Mall, Greenbelt 4, Rustan’s Tower, Rustan’s Makati, Alabang Town Centre and Rustan’s Ayala Cebu.
