Mille means ‘thousand’
in French, but also stands for the ‘Millennials’, also known as
Generation Y. The millennium generation refers to young people born
between 1980 and 1996. They're the first generation to come of age in the
new millennium. People from this generation are said to be self-confident and
critical but also social and optimistic. They've grown up with all the benefits
of information and communication technology, and they expect everything to move
quickly.
Mille for Generation
Y
Especially for this generation, Theo launched Mille. Theo
designer Serge Bracké worked from the idea of designing VinGtage glasses that
were simply beautiful, with a well-balanced and, moreover, highly ergonomic
design. Glasses that would appeal especially to the younger generation,
but of course to anyone with a passion for pure form. He came up with acetate
and metal models, inspired by the past, yet highly contemporary.
Hidden Theo
touch
In
the acetate models the twist is in the very rounded edges of the frames,
inspired by Japanese vintage glasses, and the colour in the earpiece. In
the metal models, the inside of the frames has a motif in relief.
It's a little wink to the lining of a suit jacket. Each one of the
metal frames has a different ‘lining’.
THE MILLE COLLECTION AND OTHER
BEAUTIFUL MODELS ARE NOW IN STOCK!
