The GP 028 by Paco Rabanne Paris is a rare archival statement piece originating from the peak era of late-century French optical manufacturing. Defined by a confident, geometric brow line and architectural proportions, this unworn deadstock frame perfectly captures the experimental spirit of the legendary design house.
- The Provenance: A genuine, unrepeated piece of design history hand-selected from vintage stock—once it is gone, it cannot be restocked.
- Sculptural Depth: Crafted with heavy-profile vintage materials featuring distinct custom bevelling that catches the light and highlights its unique dimensional profile.
- The Lens Option: Arrives custom prescription-ready, or our Wellington studio can outfit this frame with premium custom sun tints tailored to its historic character.
Styling Tip: Play up the frame’s structural drama by pairing it with clean, tailoring-forward silhouettes—such as a sharp, oversized black blazer, a structured mock neck sweater, or minimalist outerwear with strong lines.
