Conversely, the leathers used on the brow bars of other styles follow the more subtle colours – ‘Linen’, ‘Powder Blue’ ‘Candy Pink' - used on the bags in the Victoria Beckham Accessories line, linking the two collections neatly together.

Included within the new Classic Victoria aviator capsule collection is an offering of premium styles featuring uniquely luxurious elements.18ct gold-dipped and platinum frames are refined and elegant, whilst snap hinges give extra flexibility and prevent the backs of the lenses from scratching.
