DITA Eyewear has teamed up with Jenna Lyons to re-release the LYONS frames. This collaboration brings back the classic rounded silhouette in two styles: sun and optical. Each frame is crafted in a limited run of 500 units, combining exclusivity and elegant design.
Jenna Lyons: A Style Icon
Jenna Lyons is a designer and entrepreneur known for her work at J.Crew, where she served as Executive Creative Director and President. She currently leads the beauty brand LoveSeen. Her influence on fashion has earned her the title “Woman Who Dresses America.” Lyons is also known for her love of bold eyewear, which is often a key part of her signature look.
Lyons’ connection to DITA began years ago, as she wore LYONS frames daily. She explained: “There isn’t a day that goes by where someone doesn’t ask, ‘Where did you get your glasses?’ I felt like a walking billboard, so I literally cold-called DITA and asked if we could have a more intimate relationship. This has never worked before, but it worked this time, and I am beyond thrilled.”
The LYONS Frames: Elegant and Functional
The LYONS frames feature a rounded cat-eye design crafted from high-quality acetate. The sun style comes in Midnight Rose with Smoke Gradient lenses and Gold Flash accents, creating a bold yet wearable look. The optical style is available in Desert Peach, offering a warm and subtle tone for daily wear.
Both styles reflect Lyons’ mix of playful creativity and timeless elegance. The frames are engineered with DITA’s focus on precision and detail, ensuring they stand out as functional and fashionable.
Limited Edition Appeal
Only 500 pairs of each style have been produced, making these frames highly collectible. Lyons previously collaborated with DITA on the re-release of the Flight.004 aviators, which sold out in four days. With the LYONS frames, the anticipation is equally high, ensuring their status as a coveted addition to any collection.
Why LYONS Stands Out
The LYONS frames are more than eyewear—they are an expression of style. The bold lines and rich colors make them ideal for those who view glasses as a statement piece. They combine Lyons’ creative vision with DITA’s engineering expertise, delivering both function and artistic design.Â
The DITA x Jenna Lyons LYONS frames celebrate individuality and craftsmanship. With limited availability and standout design, these frames are perfect for anyone who wants eyewear that combines elegance, exclusivity, and personal expression. Whether worn as sunglasses or optical frames, the LYONS frames are a lasting statement of style.
