BUKURRA Eyewear
BUKURRA's debut eyewear, on the other hand, strips back the details with minimalist silhouettes that honor Albanian cultural roots while asserting modern architectural fluency.
For those itching for subtle refinement, BUKURRA's sculptural eyewear is this summer's understated 'go-to' essential. Inspired by the Albanian word bukur meaning '"beautiful" in feeling proportion, and presence,' the label delivers frames that balance organic shapes with architectural prowess. Newly founded this year, the handcrafted acetate frames feature the brand's signature dual hemispheres at the temples—a bold, balanced silhouette. Hues like translucent amber, smoky gray, and soft blush pink pair are classic, with a modern flare.
Whether the minimalist rounded shields or compact, vintage-inspired square frames, BUKURRA shades convey quiet confidence embraced by tastemakers like Alicia Keys and Maluma. Frames are built to last and intend to endure well beyond the season.
VEERT: Collection 9
NYC-based luxury label VEERT's Collection 9 combines meticulous design, using the six-sided dice as a visual metaphor for chance and personal agency. The jewelry's green enamel details and solid silver builds invite layering, or worn solo, complementing streetwear and formalwear aesthetics.
A symbolic dive into destiny and duality, the six-faced dice motif is crafted in 925 silver, with some finished with bold green enamel—a nod to the brand's core color and signature ethos. These dice appear in necklaces, wallet chains, and earrings. Rings are accented with vivid enamel or encircled with gemstones in concentric layers. Designed in Italy, with solid gold available upon request, each genderless piece can be layered or worn as a statement piece.
Co-founder Julia Lang explains in a statement, "I wanted to incorporate the green motif that forms the core of the label, but the dice totem introduced elements of luck and chance, opening a new paradigm for the collection." The outcome is pieces like the Pearl Green 4 Dice Necklace, a blend of symbolism and luxury. The collection's energy is amplified by its campaign star, Brett Gelman, bringing an unexpected edge to VEERT's blend of elegance and experimentation.
