RIGARDS x Boris Bidjan Saberi RG1011BBS Limited Edition Sunglasses

Presenting the unique RIGARDS x Boris Bidjan Saberi RG1011BBS Sunglasses, a limited edition of just 500 pieces. This ultralight, all-titanium frame reinterprets the classic aviator silhouette into a universally flattering, circular design. The model captures an intriguing concept of “imperfect perfection” and surgical precision.

The corners of the frame are anchored by crescent half-moon shapes, adding character and dimension. The design puts a special emphasis on fit, optimizing the proportions to suit a diverse range of face and head shapes.

A standout feature is the detachable side-shields. Carved in a form reminiscent of molded body armors, these shields not only protect against peripheral light but also fortify the wearer, evoking the charm of medieval armor. The shields have debossed grooves and two slender cutouts, reflecting Saberi’s symbolic affinity for the number eleven. The shields' design is a blend of the past and future, recalling ancient insect exoskeletons and projecting a cyber-organic feel.

The functionality of the shields, from their attachability/removability to their material elasticity and stability, is carefully designed for technical soundness. They can also double as pendants on a necklace chain (sold separately) for added styling versatility.

RIGARDS's 'Time Machine' hand-finishing technique gives both the frame and shields a bespoke, weathered patina, further reinforcing the allure of imperfection. This model is a synthesis of artistry and expertise, embodying a sophisticated aesthetic.
