AVECSPRING 2018
Balancing technical mastery with artistic grace, Avec’s elegant acetate skin is cleverly sculpted to reveal a glimpse of its own intricate internal machinery. Inspired by the refinement of Renaissance statues, which were painstakingly composed to ensure structural integrity, designers forged the subtle curvature and balance of Avec’s acetate exterior in the mode of a functional sculpture. Rather than conceal the frame’s metal core, as is customary in rectangular frames, designers grooved a notch in the acetate just below the temple connection, creating a flex for added comfort and transforming Avec’s foundation into a design feature in its own right. This elegant feature invites deeper understanding of the precision-milled interior architecture that rests

SYSTEM - TWOSPRING 2018
The latest installment in the System-Series, System-Two employs a single thin titanium exoskeleton to achieve an elegant new take on a classic round aviator. Melding decorative styles spanning from antiquity to modernity, System-Two evokes the tatara ironworking method that allowed early Japanese blacksmiths to forge elaborate creations from clay blast ovens. This artisanal legacy flourished anew in the early 20th century, when modernist architects began to incorporate Japanese craftwork into structures and furnishings around the world. This decorative arts revival influenced the frame’s industrial proportions, as well as its etched temples and intricately sculpted end-pieces. System-Two’s linear titanium frame, which wraps

INITIATORSPRING 2018
Past and future converge with electrifying results in Initiator, an oversized aviator ripped from silver screen. Sculpted with the sleek, confident proportions of the 1980s, Initiator weaves between cinematic and stylistic conventions for an altogether new look. The frame’s most prominent feature—a sporty, acetate bridge piece—was inspired from archival pieces of the 1970s; the heft of this muscular chassis thrums with the energy of a retro science fiction films, offering a portal to the future fixed firmly in the past. As a feat of engineering, Initiator’s dual-toned titanium construction does more than turn heads. Meticulously assembled for lasting quality, the chassis anchors a sleek titanium lens cup rendered in a sophisticated new proportion. The frame is

single frame. Achieving this feat required extraordinary precision at the design level: Rikton Type-402’s titanium chassis contains slots for both lenses, as well as a small titanium spacer to resist friction, dust, and scratching; a tonal bridge bar containing the temples is then affixed over the top of the frame, securing its components in place. Exquisite details, from custom titanium nose pads to sculpted acetate temple tips, offer uncompromising comfort and style for the most discerning eyewear enthusiasts.
RIKTON - TYPE 402SPRING 2018
Meticulously engineered to harness the ever-changing properties of light, Rikton Type-402 employs an innovative photochromic dual-lens construction for an unparalleled visual experience. The third in a triad of innovative concept frames for Spring 2018, Rikton Type-402’s muscular style frame is the first to make use of a stacked flat-base lens system, consisting of an interior tinted lens and an exterior photochromic lens; as ultraviolet light conditions change, the interplay of color between the two creates a chameleon-like visual effect. Whereas a standard single photochromic lens does not allow for a tinted lens experience, this lens system offers the best of both worlds: photochromic+color. Informed by adaptive reaction to light in the natural world, the Rikton Type-402 is Dita’s first concept deploying two lenses into a

CONIQUESPRING 2018
Opposites collide in the form of Conique, a bold oversized women’s frame that defies easy categorization. Nominally informed by the brash visual style of the postpunk movement, Conique features a juxtaposition of familiar elements that feel foreign when taken as a whole. The all-acetate frame is aggressively sculpted around both lenses, adding a squared weight over semi-round 2-base lenses. These geometries converge to achieve a bold, “Aggro-Pop” sensibility, an almost a childlike manifestation of the punk ethos. Conique is appointed with a host of luxurious finishing details, including high quality acetates and Dita’s unique hex screw hinges.

NIGHTBIRD - ONESPRING 2018
Sculpted with the grace of wings extended in flight, Nightbird-One’s innovate titanium double frame builds upon years of experimentation with titanium construction. The first in a triad of innovative concept frames for Spring 2018, Nightbird-One relies upon tension to hold the its wing-shaped ombre lenses in place. Previous frames models, composed of a single titanium wire, were engineered to reduce the number of moving components and thus reduce mechanical friction; Nightbird-One’s double frame construction gently cradles the lens between the thin titanium wire, creating a distinct design language for future Nightbird-Series frames.

into shape. DITA’s signature Talon mount design creates the illusion of a “floating” lens; these extruded Talon elements are bent into shape with knurling, or fine grooves, on the front, invoking elements from thehandcrafted metalwork of early telescopes.
Like those early astronomic instruments, each ofthe frame’s components is finely calibrated in themanufacturing process to minimize mechanical tensionand ensure a precise fit. The extraordinary fit and finishgives Axial and elegant yet mechanized character.
AXIALSPRING 2018
The glimmering brass and mirrored components ofEnlightenment-era scientific instruments inspired Axial, a sophisticated women’s aviator that represents the optimal blending of form and function.
In order to achieve Axial’s carefully consideredfootprint, which is smaller than the traditional aviator,DITA devised a series of groundbreaking techniques toensure the frame’s precision mechanics would matchthe appeal of its architecture. That process began earlyin the design stage, when designers softened the aviatorform and reduced the size of the lens; the resulting proportions convey an intellectual character without sacrificing the frame’s sport edge.
The slender, lightweight titanium exoskeleton is theresult of customized metal dies, which are fitted intospecialized heat presses and used to mold the frame

Custom-made metal dies fitted into specialized heatpresses are used to create the frame shape. Byshrinking down the lens and softening the aviatorform, a new elegant yet mechanized character shinesthrough.
TALON-TWOSPRING 2018
The Talon-Two is an all-titanium hybrid aviator withthe signature Dita Talon. The unique lens shape wasinspired by round character frames from the turn ofthe century combined with a 60’s aviator, while theTalon lens suspension elements are a nod to themechanical Art Deco production design prevalent inGerman Expressionist film from the 1930’s.
The all titanium frame uses Dita’s signature Talonmount design to visually support a ‘floating’ lensconcept and accommodate for the thinner frameshape. The titanium structure of the Talon-Two has thin extruded sections that act as an overall exoskeleton for the lenses. These extruded Talon elements are the bent into desired shapes with fine grooving (knurling) on the front making for an extraordinary fit and finish.Special attention has been given to ensure the

These heroic aspirations have been sculpted into an elegant, lightweight frame composed of Japanese beta-titanium for unparalleled strength and flexibility; oversized acetate temple tips accentuate Flight-Seven’s remarkably thin frame while adding a new dimension of comfort and style. Carefully considered details, like Dita’s signature diamond-pressed titanium finish, ensure the perfect balance of visionary design and unparalleled quality.
FLIGHT SEVENSPRING 2018
Dita’s celebrated flight series soars to new heights with Flight-Seven, a confident “navigator” that blends the spirit of a classic aviator with the masculine shape of a traditional square lens.
Flight-Seven began as a tribute to the supersonic military aircraft of the 1970s. These jets combined aerodynamic grace with revolutionary technology to reach speeds in excess of Mach 3; the fighter pilots who commanded these jets became international icons for their daring and courageous attitude, as well as for the classic aviator’s style that followed them onto the tarmac.

The Supa Dupa sparked a craze that even the hottest pop stars of the time couldn’t resist, and the “granny chic” trend hit the masses.
Dita is proud to re-introduce the Supa Dupa....
SUPA-DUPASPRING 2018
First introduced in 2003, the Supa Dupa defied the mainstream trend for small frames with a chunky, oversized acetate frame that would later come to define the “granny chic” trend. Wanting to create a frame their peers would wear, John Juniper and Jeff Solorio looked to their circle of friends for inspiration—models, stylists and creatives—all of whom were digging through thrift stores in search for the perfect oversized vintage frame. With this creative group in mind the Supa Dupa was born.
Upon launch, only the most daring would wear this massively oversized style, however, when the most iconic models of the time were seen wearing the style everything changed.

AVECSPRING 2018
Balancing technical mastery with artistic grace, Avec’s elegant acetate skin is cleverly sculpted to reveal a glimpse of its own intricate internal machinery. Inspired by the refinement of Renaissance statues, which were painstakingly composed to ensure structural integrity, designers forged the subtle curvature and balance of Avec’s acetate exterior in the mode of a functional sculpture. Rather than conceal the frame’s metal core, as is customary in rectangular frames, designers grooved a notch in the acetate just below the temple connection, creating a flex for added comfort and transforming Avec’s foundation into a design feature in its own right. This elegant feature invites deeper understanding of the precision-milled interior architecture that rests

The distinctive top bar — a visual signature that recurs throughout the collection—is forged from a single piece of titanium and acts as a chassis of sorts to anchor the frame’s lightweight acetate lens rim.
SCHEMA - ONESPRING 2018
Schema-One proposes a confident new vocabulary for design rooted in strength and restraint, made possible with advances in engineering.
The quest for mechanical sophistication and durability inspired designers to apply the precepts of systems engineering to Dita’s existing design process. The outcome: Schema-One, a relentlessly minimal optical frame guided by the notion that simplicity is the ultimate expression of elegance.
Each component is precision engineered to eliminate the use of screws, reducing mechanical friction and ensuring that no specialized tools are required in the assembly process.

SHOWGOERSPRING 2018
Aggressively styled with a fresh weight and proportion, Showgoer lands a knockout punch to the traditional 1950s cat-eye frame. Inspired by the cool screen sirens of French new wave cinema, Showgoer tantalizes with the possibility of concealed identities. Its angular dimensions suggest a new and rebellious attitude, from the bold new weight of the acetate frame to the slender titanium inlay that borders its perimeter—details that are reminiscent of punk-era revivals of the cat-eye shape. A high-quality acetate frame constructed with an elegant titanium inlay, Showgoer features an array of luxurious details for the discerning eyewear enthusiast.

internal steel panel is chemically etched, plated, and laminated between two sheets of lightweight acetate; this contrast-pairing technique takes far longer than conventional methods, but results in blade-thin profiles that are extraordinarily thin, strong and light. The process is unique to Dita and executed by a skilled team of artisans working at the company’s production facilities.
FLORENSPRING 2018
An optical classic, crafted with extraordinary detail: Floren pays tribute to the Japanese concept of shibui with a slender acetate and titanium frame that finds elegance in austerity. Shibui, which literally translates to “bitter-tasting,” describes an aesthetic of subdued and unobtrusive beauty. Rendered in simple form, but balanced with complex textures or finishes, shibui objects appreciate in aesthetic value with time, as users find new meaning in the appreciation of subtle details. This delicate interplay of simplicity and complexity isn’t merely a function of Floren’s sleek, minimal design – it lies at the heart of the innovative manufacturing techniques used in the frame’s production. As part of the Dita-Laminate series, Floren’s

TOPOSSPRING 2018
An irreverent P3 frame rendered in lightweight acetate, Topos blends two of Dita’s most advanced production techniques in a discerning feat of optical engineering. As part of the DITA-FEATHERWEIGHT series, Topos is sculpted from precision-milled acetate and treated using Dita’s innovative heat-tempering manufacturing process. The resulting frame offers the strength of traditional acetate at much lighter weight, ensuring a proper balance of comfort and durability. This balance is reflected in the frame’s converging geometries, which feature elements of Postmodern design in its warm proportions.
