OPTICAL AFFAIRS VINTAGE - SERIES T

Designed in 1984, handmade in France, Series T pushed the language of Series A into bolder, more sculptural territory, introducing a wrap-inspired contour that felt ahead of its time. The frame - in the color purple - made its first splash in the premiere issue of ELLE USA in 1985, captured in a stunning editorial themed ‘Racy Royals’, photographed by Gilles Bensimon and styled by Elissa Santisi. The publisher elevated the moment by choosing the image for an oversized launch poster that took over Manhattan bus stops. Seeing it everywhere in the city was a moment of genuine pride. 

Inspired by Pucci, yet never part of a runway collaboration, this unique frame - the only one of its kind - vanished within hours of its online debut.
