Female: Hi, welcome to watchmojo.com. Picking the perfect pair of sunglasses involves a little more that throwing on the latest designer pair. With the wider ray of sun glasses to choose from, it can get a bit confusing. But keep it simple go with the designer that offers the best style and protection. I’m with sunglasses specialist Bodo.
Bodo: Hi!
Female: Hi! First of all what are some of the trends this season?
Bodo: Right now for sure like every year, the fashion people are towards the brand. The more you see the brand, the more you see the details, the more you see the shiny gold, the shiny diamonds. Very flashy, you pay for the name; you pay for what’s flashy in the frame this year.
Female: Are there any specific elements that really are a signal of good quality.
Bodo: Yes and no. Big brands are good quality period. I don’t think Gucci will do something not good quality so I suggest to look for a good brand than to look for a good product and then you will find the good product and the good brand.
Female: What are some of the top sellers?
Bodo: Right now, my best seller is Gucci, Dior, for men Pradda, for girl Channel is good, and Marc Jacob is good also this year. Every designer brand with a big name has actually two or three models and minimum two or three models for the costumer to really appreciate.
Female: Do you know what the celebrities are wearing?
Bodo: Big brands. Every celebrity has at least 10, 15 pairs of glasses a month so they wear all brands. Brad Pit, I saw him with a Diesel frame, its one of the cheapest high oven shove but if it fits and if it’s good, a brand is a brand so and so a look is a look.
Female: Do you have any tips for taking care of sunglasses?
Bodo: Women won’t like me if I say this, but don’t put you glasses in your hair and in your head. I know a lot of women like that but it damage the frame, it gets stuck and then it opens wide up the frame wall so I don’t suggest that, always on you face or in your case.
Female: How can we each find a pair of glasses that flatters the shape of our face?
Bodo: Hard to say when I don’t tell the person in front of me like you, I would find the perfect one right away, but if it’s comfortable for to minutes in the shop usually, it will be comfortable forever. But for sure don’t take something super huge that won’t touch your nose, that goes like this, no that for sure just listen to the sales man, listen to your friends.
Female: According to you, when is it worth spending hundreds of dollars on a pair of sunglasses?
Bodo: When, right now? Maybe 50 frames at home and I like all of them equally because if depends on your style, it depends on your – the way you dress today and it’s like a pair of jeans right now. Glasses are really an accessory that you have to have more than one.
Female: Is the shade or the tint of the lens just a question of fashion or does it has anything to do with the protection of the eyes?
Bodo: In terms of protection, I wouldn’t day it matters it’s more to fit you’re need. If you’re just driving and you want just a nice pair for driving then go maybe dark brown leave in the car and all that but if you’re a fashion guy, or a fashion girl then go radiant so go in and out. You can eat with it, you can go terrace, you can go whatever and it doesn’t bother people and you still see the eyes so you do a conversation with the person. So if you’re always outside, go dark, if you go in and out, go gradient.
Female: Thank you very much.
Bodo: My pleasure.
