Angelina Jolie sports Ferragamo Sunglasses
Jolie in Ferragamo Sunglasses
In a recent pic snapped of Jolie in Venice the actress is sporting big, beautiful, black sunglasses and the question has come up…. who made them? Our friends at Celeb Outfit identifier have identified these as Ferragamo shades.
The frames appear to be acetate with a slight gradient lens. In addition to looking fab one can assume that they also offer superb sun protection given the large sized lens and dark tint.
Ferragamo is a luxury goods company originally started by Salvatore Ferragamo. Salvatore was a Florentine shoe designer who lived in Hollywood during the 1920’s working with many of the decades top stars. After 13 years he returned to Florence to open his own company designing and crafting fine shoes for powerful women across the world.
Ferragamo was always recognized as a visionary, and his designs ranged from the strikingly bizarre objet d’art to the traditionally elegant, often serving as the main inspiration to other footwear designers of his time and beyond. Salvatore Ferragamo died in 1960 at the age of 62, but his name lives on as an international company, which has expanded its operations to include luxury shoes, bags, eyewear, silk accessories, watches, perfumes and a ready-to-wear clothing line. At his death his wife Wanda and later their six children (Fiamma, Giovanna, Fulvia, Ferruccio, Massimo and Leonardo) ran the Ferragamo company.
