Luxury menswear brand Billionaire, known for its eccentric, sophisticated and impeccable style using the finest Italian craftsmanship, has introduced its latest pair of shades, designed with 32 grams of 24-carat pure gold.

This unique pair is produced by the iconic French fashion house Dalloz, in Saint-Claude. The aviator-styled frames along with the temples, nose pads, rims and screws are all entirely lavishly plated in pure gold.

The gold plaque is also known as the most popular form of blocking infrared radiation and thus acts as a measure of protection. These particular aviators are construed to minimise and block the harmful ultraviolet rays that surrounds us daily, says Billionaire.

These new, engineered shades are available upon request and made to measure. Personalised customisation of the buyer’s name is also available upon request, it says.

The shades are available at Billionaire’s boutiques across the Middle East and  the price range begins at Dh50,145 ($13,651.73).
