"Christian Dior" 70's-80's Amber optyl oversized sunglasses

"Christian Dior Monsieur"
Late 70's-80's oversized amber-brown optyl sunglasses

Since our founding, with elegance as our core, we have developed tasteful designs even in the realm of menswear. From Christian Dior Monsieur, we are pleased to introduce this exceptional piece with beautiful decorative appeal.

With a frame in an amber brown that carries a sense of transparency, oversized square-leaning lens shapes, and temple embellishments that make your side profile particularly striking, this piece quietly exudes the unmistakable presence of vintage eyewear.

As the optyl logo can be seen on the inner temple, this appears to be an Optyl-type transparent resin material. Depending on how the light hits, it takes on a deep, richly dimensional tone that can also reflect a reddish tortoiseshell-like brown. Paired with smoky brown-toned lenses, it adds gentle shading around the face and a luxurious mood.

The front is designed with an over-size-leaning balance, and subtle curves reminiscent of aviators are added to the clean, square edges. As a result, it remains classic without becoming overly rigid, while the thick temples create solid volume from the side view.

In addition, on the outer side of the temples, there are oval plates with a CD motif in gold and black, along with red-toned inlay-like parts inserted into them. This creates a lively accent against the amber brown frame, finishing in a way that allows Dior’s signature refined decorative character to be smoothly and naturally incorporated into everyday styling.

Regarding the年代 (era), in addition to the optyl logo on the inner temple, the Ch. Dior monsieur marking, the "Made in Germany" statement, and the white print "2038J 30," it is also consistent with resin-frame textures, metal hinges, oversized lens shapes, and decorative temple design typically seen in Dior vintage eyewear produced by Optyl. For these reasons, it is regarded as a piece from the late 1970s to around the 1980s.

As the lenses may also have been replaced at a later time, we cannot definitively claim full originality. However, the current brown-toned tint is extremely well-matched to the frame’s color, and the overall balance makes it easy to incorporate into modern styling without compromising the feel of vintage eyewear.

Simply pairing it with a simple shirt or knit brings an elegant, distinctive character to the area around your face. And if you combine it with a leather jacket or a long coat, you will achieve a city-ready impression while still retaining the lingering atmosphere of the 70s through the 80s. It is especially recommended for those who want to choose eyewear not merely as an accessory, but as the main piece that defines the entire look.

As Optyl-produced vintage eyewear under the Christian Dior Monsieur name, it is fair to say that this is an exceptional piece with collectible appeal in every aspect—decoration, color tone, and silhouette.

We would be delighted if you could take advantage of this opportunity.
