Ongoing innovations such as the fashion show help to increase the visitor experience as well as reinforce the strategic positioning of the event for the entire industry.”

Egma Lens Factory will present new collections from Porsche Design and Rodenstock whilst Puma and Lacoste will be unveiled by Euphoria Trading. Concluding the programme is PMI showcasing Davinci, Venecia, Rudy Project and Serengeti Eyewear.
