ic! berlin Updates Classic Collection with Step-Cut Design
Classic is timeless, perfection is boundless. Where the two converge, ic! berlin's September Collection 2024 is born. Reimagining beloved frames with innovative use of stainless steel, the iconic German brand introduces familiar styles with cleaner lines, thinner fronts, and a new concept of true elegance that lives on, transcending all things fleeting and flashy.
Step-Cut by ic! berlin: Less Than Minimal
Lightness and sleekness at their finest: Kara and Rufus
The driving force behind ic! berlin's 2024 update is the innovative Step-Cut design, nothing short of engineering magic that allows for even thinner, lighter, and sleeker frames. At its core, the technology uses high-grade stainless steel cold-rolled into sheets as thin as 0.5 mm. Being squeezed between rollers, the steel becomes more flexible while keeping all of its strength. The result is a frame that is durable enough to bend and adjust without losing its shape, yet light enough for wearing it comfortably all day. Warp-resistant, anti-corrosive, and hypoallergenic to suit sensitive skin, the new ic! berlin glasses can survive any amount of wear, tear, sweat, grit, and life's unpredictability.
Layers of Splendor: Textures, Accents, Insights
Thulium and Kara: ic! berlin's Step-Cut marvels
What really sets the Step-Cut design apart, though, is how ic! berlin plays with layers of metal. Using a stepped effect, they create frames that aren’t just discreetly refined—they are visually dynamic. The layering of textures, from matte to polished with occasional patches of rough, makes each pair turn up more intriguing, elaborate, and exquisite than seemingly possible, offering a clean, up-to-date look with just the right amount of edge. Whisper-light fronts, smooth-flowing silhouettes, delicate metal rings, and elegant milled facets all come together to form eyewear that feels as effortless as it is exceptional.
Hybrid Favorites Reimagined
ic! berlin's Hybrid genius shines in Dakota
That’s not all yet—ic! berlin’s hybrid designs take things to the next level. Fusing the cool precision of metal with the velvety warmth of premium acetate, these frames offer a whole new visual and tactile allure. Known for being lightweight, enduring, and gentle on the skin, acetate adds another dimension with its lush texture and richer, more nuanced palettes. Sleek stainless steel cores get paired with smooth acetate rings. Metal-reinforced temples come wrapped in silky acetate for a softer, more comfortable fit. Familiar shapes emerge anew, more fascinating and full of character than ever. Classic charm rediscovers itself through ic! berlin's high-tech finesse.
Colors That Whisper, Contrasts That Hum
From floaty Wes to punchy Bent: ic! berlin's 2024 design span
The color palette of the latest ic! berlin spectacles finds its own sweet spot between subtlety and captivation. Calm, grounded hues, such as deep graphite, soft pearl, warm teak, and rich bronze, get microinjections of vibrancy—a whisper of marine blue here, a hint of spruce green there, occasional touches of red for a controlled pop of energy… Carefully measured and masterfully blended, never overwhelming or distracting, they bring the frames to life with just enough nuance and personality. The sunglasses in the September Collection 2024, alongside classic black-on-black models, come in luxurious Havanas, enhanced by lenses in iconic ic! berlin tints like bottle green and smokey skies. Flowing together with the lines and bringing out the beauty of the textures, the brand's color choices remain as premium as ever.
Seamless And Hingeless
All of the Step-Cut design brilliance comes packed into a seamless build, put together without the use of any welds or glue—or hinges, for that matter. Instead, ic! berlin relies on a patented clip-on system that anchors the temple arms to the frame with interlocking components. This screwless, hinge-free approach not only makes the glasses more durable but also ensures that the temples move smoothly and flexibly—no getting stuck when folding and unfolding, no loosening over time. The improved performance translates into a streamlined aesthetic. With the hinges and welds out of the way, the frames look neater and feel lighter, achieving that perfect, uninterrupted ic! berlin flow from browline to temple tips.
I See 2024 - a special new edition of the beloved sun frame
With its updated frames, ic! berlin has aimed at creating eyewear that would match the electric heartbeat of modern life while standing timelessly tall in the flow of its passing trends. And they deliver on every front, pun or not. Rewriting the script of classic perfection in sleek, tech-forward terms, the September Collection 2024 may really fit all faces and occasions, but it's you it deeply, personally resonates with. Flawless in every detail, premium without having to brag about it, understated yet absolutely unmissable, the new frames glide effortlessly through autumn and take a soft step into winter to keep enchanting us year after year.
