Face-à-Face Unleashes Magic with Color Lab/Overlap Collection

Face-à-Face has always been a color virtuoso. But in their new line of eyewear, color doesn't just play a role—it takes the spotlight. The Color Lab/Overlap collection is all about hues that sculpt the frames, pushing beyond mere accents to become the lifeblood and heartbeat of the design. Hues so vivid they seem to dance through the lucid acetate, casting an array of shifting moods as they meet, overlap, and blend into each other. It's pure magic, sparking a palette of emotions that inspire you to be bold, shine bright, and express every shade of yourself to the fullest.

The name of Face-à-Face’s new collection says it all: Color Lab/Overlap is where hues become bold experiments in every frame. Each piece transforms into a tiny laboratory, where colors mix, merge, and pull off their unfathomable visual alchemy . Two shades blend to create the unexpected, something that evokes fresh emotions and an entirely new mood. Color reveals its full, mesmerizing depth. With its new line, Face-à-Face takes a daring dive into risograph-inspired layering and fabric-like textures , blending hues that flow like silk and intersections that draw you in. The collection pulses with vibrancy, stirring both the eyes and the heart.

Imagine a palette that fuses pastel dreaminess with electric energy. Soft, hazy blues and ethereal whites evoke the break of dawn, while rich reds gain a touch of candy-pink sweetness. These gentle tones are contrasted with bold splashes —think fuchsia against crystal-clear champagne, ultraviolet mingling with deep, burnt orange. That’s just a glimpse of Face-à-Face’s new collection, and once you start, you won’t be able to stop, no matter how many frames—or colorways—you try on. The hues meet and blend , creating delightful moments of visual surprise. With every clash of colors , a new wave of excitement unfolds, until you're finally swept into a state of pure eyewear euphoria.

Color Meets Lucidity

For the color chemistry to really come together, the right material is everything. The new Face-à-Face Color Lab/Overlap collection is made from the clearest, finest acetate —a wonder substance known for its silky texture and perfect clarity . No matter how chunky and hefty the new models may look, they still have this light-as-air vibe, like they're made of nothing but color and light, with every layer of every shade shining through the acetate's translucent depth. And no matter how bold the outlines or how thick the frames, these (and all other) Face-à-Face glasses remain surprisingly weightless , offering a perfectly soft wrap for your eyes that makes them a joy to wear.

Magic Is in the Details

The stunning color experience brought to you by Face-à-Face is tied together with tiny geometric elements that punctuate each frame—seemingly minor details that add structure and rhythm to the riot of vibrancy. From pixel-like patterns that feel almost digital in their precision to sharp triangles that cut through color with clean, graphic flair, each palette feels like it’s frozen in motion. Chevron shapes pop up where you least expect them, carving out a bold, zigzagging flow that truly electrifies the design. These pieces of geometric splendor are more than just fancy embellishments; they’re like little windows into the Color Lab/Overlap's artistic soul, giving each frame its own unique identity.

Top Face-à-Face Design Tricks

  • Bold Size: Miniature glasses are not Face-à-Face's style. In the Color Lab/Overlap collection, the brand takes things up a notch with audaciously cast, sometimes downright oversized frame shapes. From slightly larger than usual wayfarers to full-on dramatic butterflies, Face-à-Face isn't holding back.

  • Sculpted Beauty: With a lavish handling of shapes and a passion for chunkiness, Face-à-Face brings a touch of sculptural splendor to their Color Lab/Overlap line. Silhouettes as striking as they are refined, bold, dynamic bridges, and fanciful temple architecture merge into eyewear that is magnifique in the most Parisian of senses. Every time you put on a pair, you're wearing a piece of art, no less.

  • Angular Charm: In its Color Lab/Overlap collection, Face-à-Face isn’t shy about playing with geometry, in a way that's both commanding and seductive. Even in traditionally softer and rounder forms, expect to see lots of sharp, assertive lines and distinctive, playful angles. Quite edgy, literally.

  • Flex Hinges: As with all Face à Face eyewear, the new line is equipped with the brand's patented flex hinges for ultimate flexibility. Folding and unfolding with ease, engineered to provide unhindered movement without compromising structural integrity, they ensure a hassle-free, effortlessly adjustable wearing experience—everything to keep you comfortable from the second you slide your glasses on to the moment you set them down for the night.
