The innovative frames of the Ray-Ban Change collection were designed in collaboration with Transitions, using a new patented acetate technology. The material of the frame changes its appearance thanks to special photochromic dyes that adapt to light conditions. Indoors, the frame has a uniform tint, while outdoors, the UV light activates multicolour markings, increasing their colour intensity. The quality of the new acetate matches that of the classic material. The glasses are available in a variety of colours and patterns.
Statement by the Jury
The Ray-Ban Change collection impresses with its innovative material technology, giving the tried-and-trusted product an interesting changeability and dynamism.
