NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - May 1, 2015) - MOSCOT, a New York City institution renowned worldwide for its iconic eyewear -- The MOSCOT Originals, MOSCOT Spirit, and MOSCOT Sun Collections -- is basking in bohemian glamour this Summer with the release of its 2015 MOSCOT Sun Collection.
Combining MOSCOT's classic shapes with the eclectic styles that defined the 1970s, the Collection is a kaleidoscope of hippie bling and understated glitz that is undeniably summer, and unmistakably MOSCOT. Layering an ethereal matte color palette of muted earth tones with coordinated metals, The CONRAD, EVERET, FAYE, and MAJOR remain timeless, while sporting a sophisticated disco vibe.
Not resting on their looks alone, The CONRAD, EVERET, FAYE and MAJOR feature the latest optical lens technology -- true polarized gradient sun lenses with a multilayered back surface coating for an anti-reflective, no glare effect, and the ultimate in UVA/UVB protection for maximum sun protection and clear vision.
