Leading international designer TOMAS MAIER is launching a debut collection of unisex sunglasses for summer 2016.
The collection will be marketed in Israel exclusively at Iroka's new concept branch - 'Capsule-Iroka', in the Ofer Mall in Ramat Aviv and will include sunglasses in a very meticulous and precise casual style with retro touches.
Designer Thomas Meyer: "Since I've been wearing glasses since I was 6, I'm very aware of choosing the right frame both in terms of necessity and as a personal statement. Choosing glasses says a lot about the person wearing them. I'm excited to develop my own eyewear line.".

The glasses in the collection have a classic look with an understated statement of precise and smart style.
Meyer makes interesting connections between premium acetate and lightweight stainless steel, between shiny and matte, thin and thick, transparent and opaque, and uses the finest materials of high European quality. Among them: premium acetate, lightweight stainless steel and more.
Special attention is paid to the small details, for example: the stamping of palm trees on the inside of the temples, a special extension on the arms that prevents the glasses from slipping, etc. The obvious influences in the collection are retro chic, California vibe, the East Coast, the librarian look, aviator style, and more.
The Thomas Mayer brand was founded in 1997 by Thomas Mayer, a German designer who received his education at the most prestigious haute couture institution in Paris - Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture. In the past, Mayer designed for renowned fashion houses including: Hermes, Sonia Raquel, and more.
In 2001, he was chosen by Tom Ford as the creative director of the luxury fashion house Bottega Veneta and to move the brand forward, which is what he has been doing in recent years, dividing his time between New York, Milan, and Florida.
