UDM Unveils Cinematic Fall/Winter 2024 Collection

The fall/winter season is upon us, and with it comes the latest release from UNIQUEDESIGNMILANO (UDM), a brand that consistently redefines luxury eyewear. Known for blending timeless elegance with contemporary flair, UDM’s new collection brings cinematic inspiration to the forefront, offering opticians an exclusive opportunity to elevate their eyewear selections. Each frame tells a story – a nod to classic European cinema – creating a collection that’s not just visually stunning, but also deeply meaningful.

An Ode to European Cinema

Drawing from the rich history of European cinema, UDM’s Fall/Winter 2024 collection is more than just eyewear; it’s a celebration of cultural narratives. The collection channels the bold characters and unforgettable aesthetics of directors like Guy Ritchie, Roberto Rossellini, and French cinema icons. Each frame encapsulates the mood and intricacies of their films, offering wearers the opportunity to embody these timeless stories.

Exquisite Craftsmanship, Unmatched Quality

Every UDM frame is designed in Milan and handcrafted in Japan by skilled artisans, marrying the finest Italian materials with an irreverent, forward-thinking approach to design. This dedication to craftsmanship is visible in every detail, from the premium acetate used in construction to the custom wire cores and 7-barrel custom hinges that ensure both durability and comfort.

For opticians, this collection offers an unparalleled opportunity to present clients with eyewear that goes beyond aesthetics. UDM frames are meticulously engineered to provide functional lightness while never compromising on style. Whether it’s the bold lines of The Ritchie or the subtle elegance of Frame 44, each model is as comfortable as it is eye-catching.

Highlights from the Collection

The Ritchie: Inspired by the fast-paced, morally ambiguous characters of Guy Ritchie's films, this frame is a modern take on the double-bridge shape, made from 8mm acetate. With its bold yet refined design, it is perfect for clients who value both durability and style.

Mr. Ripley: This frame takes inspiration from the psychological thriller The Talented Mr. Ripley. Like the movie’s complex protagonist, this design is full of hidden details, including custom wire cores and a racer-inspired shape that gives the wearer an air of mystery and sophistication.

Frame 47: A tribute to European auteurs, Frame 47 combines understated elegance with a playful tortoiseshell design. The frame’s clean lines and modern craftsmanship make it an easy choice for those seeking both versatility and high fashion.

Rush: Inspired by the adrenaline-fueled world of racing, Rush is constructed from sturdy 10mm acetate. This model combines retro style with modern durability, making it ideal for clients who live life in the fast lane.

Jackie: Paying homage to the timeless grace of Jackie Kennedy, this model features delicate lines and subtle details that evoke an era of quiet sophistication. Crafted from 10mm acetate and equipped with anti-reflective lenses, Jackie is as poised as it is functional.
