THE AVANTGUARD is made in Japan using a sustainable approach. Faiza believes fashion can be beautiful, on trend and good for the planet. When an ophthalmologist diagnosed Faiza with the beginnings of a cataract, she was shocked. She loved wearing designer sunglasses but soon found out that those lenses were not offering her eyes adequate protection. It’s for this very reason THE AVANTGUARD uses premium lenses which offer UV400 and blue light protection. Faiza’s ophthalmologist advised her that she always needs to wear sunglasses, even on a cloudy days, to ensure that the cataract doesn’t worsen, which was the beginning of Faiza’s passion for sunglasses, alas THE AVANTGUARD was born.
