What makes a pair of sunglasses more than just an accessory? For Dean and Dan Caten, the creative force behind Dsquared2, it’s about identity — lived loud, styled unapologetically, and worn like a manifesto.
This February, the Canadian-Italian label renewed its global eyewear license with Safilo until 2031. In a world where fashion often feels fleeting, this long-term commitment signals more than business — it’s about evolution with intention. “Renewing our partnership with Safilo is a promise to keep pushing our vision forward,” the Caten twins shared. “Every frame is a balance between creativity and craftsmanship.”
From mirrored aviators to sculptural acetate statements, Dsquared2 eyewear channels the brand’s signature tension: masculine vs feminine, sport vs glamour, attitude vs elegance. These are not frames for the timid. They’re made for cosmopolitan minds who like their look with a twist — and a touch of rebellion.
Safilo, with nearly a century of design pedigree, brings precision to the partnership. With design studios from Milan to Portland and a global distribution network, they ensure that what starts as vision becomes reality — on faces from Tokyo to Berlin to São Paulo.
But more than reach, it’s resonance that matters. In a world of filters and fast fashion, the Dsquared2 x Safilo alliance reminds us of the enduring power of eyewear as identity. Not just what you see, but how you choose to be seen.
So, whether you’re sipping cold brew in Copenhagen or drifting through Palermo’s golden hour, slide on a pair that speaks for you. Because the right frame doesn’t just change your look — it sharpens your perspective.
