Plum is the new rose and whoever said viewing the world through rose colored glasses was a bad thing, never tried on a pair of the D&G 1216 Clear Plum! The trapezoidal shape lenses give a cat-eye like feel but don't have that strong retro feel. The lower portion of the frame is misty light plum color that darken the higher they go. Reinforced temple pieces make these frames strong and durable. You'll love the look and feel!
