Description
The Nouvelle Vague S118 ARIETTE 54 vintage sunglasses, with its brown tortoise frame and iconic cat eyes silhouette, is a rare vintage sunglasses find for collectors.
Nouvelle Vague channels the essence of French sophistication and cinematic heritage in vintage eyewear. Emerging in the late 1990s and extending into the early 2000s, the brand’s sunglasses captured the creative spirit of its namesake film movement—melding artistic elegance with confident refinement. These pieces are defined by thoughtful materiality, polished finishes, and subtle branding that whisper cultural provenance rather than shout it. Rooted in the Y2K era’s embrace of accessories as curated symbols of identity, vintage Nouvelle Vague eyewear bridges high design and storytelling. Today these pieces are prized by collectors and tastemakers for their rarity, narrative depth, and quietly luxurious execution. Their cultivated aesthetic appeals to individuals who perceive accessories as chapters of personal and cultural history—and seek to wear a piece of cinematic legacy.
