Talla

Talla

TALLA EYEWEAR is a Men, Opticals and Sunglasses collection, designed, imagined by Gianluca Gualandi.

In Bologna, everybody calls him TALLA. Gianluca Gualandi, an optician who created and operated niche optical and accessories, practiced in Italy from 1989-2005. Gianluca was always curious about art, had a love for design and fashion, and a great passion for cooking. He owes his sense of precision and attention to detail to this mother who was a haute couture seamstress. In 2004, he met Caroline Abram, and moved to Paris for love. After collaborating on the development of Caroline Abram’s designer eyewear brand, he launched TALLA in 2016. Gianluca has devoted his brand as the ultimate accessory of masculine elegance for men. The eyewear uses a combination of materials including High Density Cellulose Acetate (HDCA), pure titanium, and italian leather.

FACE A FACE

After joining the DESIGN EYEWEAR GROUP in 2015, FACE A FACE moved its headquarters to Denmark. Today, FACE A FACE has offices around the world - from Aarhus to Paris and San Francisco. The design team remains based in Paris and frames are crafted in France, Italy or Japan, depending on the expertise required.

FACE A FACE is an audacious, non-conformist eyewear brand. It was born from Parisian artistic culture more than 25 years ago and has been evolving with it ever since. The collections draw inspiration from modern art, architecture, contemporary design and fashion trends.

With exquisite combinations of materials, unique shapes and vibrant colour palettes, FACE A FACE collections strike a perfect balance between quality, function and design. From sophisticated to playful, each collection has a distinctive character and emotion, making the eyewear as unique as the face wearing it.

"FACE A FACE is more than just a brand. It's a reflection of the best the world has to offer. Each frame is a handcrafted work of art. There is luxury in every detail. And each new collection is evolution by cultural selection. It's about audacity and aesthetic frontiers. It's style and attitude. And after a quarter of a century, FACE A FACE is still at the cutting edge."
