"Christian Dior" 80's Oversized aviator sunglasses

"Christian Dior"

80's oversized round aviator sunglasses

From Christian Dior, who has shaped sophistication from couture to accessories as its foundation ever since its founding, we present this iconic design piece.

This is an Austrian-made vintage eyewear piece reminiscent of the Dior Monsieur period from around the 1980s. With brown-toned gradient lenses set in a black frame, and tasteful gold-colored CD logos placed on both sides, this is a standout item that truly shines with refined elegance.

The frame appears to be made of glossy black resin. The front, with a well-balanced thickness, creates a strong outline around the face, while the oversized shape—blending elements of both round and aviator styles—naturally delivers a presence that is classic yet modern.

The lenses feature a soft gradient transitioning from brown to amber tones. Because the tint doesn’t completely obscure your gaze, the contrast with the substantial black frame is strikingly beautiful. The bridge design, which leaves a sense of space at the center, further highlights the artistry of a true vintage silhouette.

Small gold-colored CD oval logo parts are set near the hinges on both sides. They keep the look understated while adding a distinctly Dior sense of luxury. Thanks to the slimly designed temples, the side profile appears sleek, and the presence at the front harmonizes tastefully with the light, refined feel at the sides.

Regarding the era, the item can be considered a vintage piece from around the 1980s, based on the MADE IN AUSTRIA marking found on the inside of the temple, the printed model number that appears to be 2283A 90, and the additional notation derived from the men’s line at the time, which can be read as Ch. Dior Monsieur—there are also no contemporary QR codes, URLs, or SNS-related markings.

With its bold proportions that aren’t found in current eyewear, and Dior vintage’s refined logo detailing, it’s especially recommended for those who want to add a quiet touch of elegance to their everyday look—or for anyone searching for an accessory that can create a mood with one standout piece within a simple style.

For styling, it’s of course perfect to wear it classically with a tailored jacket or a wool coat. It also creates depth around the face with vintage character when paired with minimalist outfits such as a white shirt, a black knit, or denim.

An eyewear piece that combines practicality with collectible value, allowing you to enjoy Dior’s aesthetic in a more accessible way, doesn’t it? Be sure to take this opportunity.
