GLASSING sunglasses were born in 2010 by Alessandro Forte and Stefano Ottone, two friends from Milan who decided to embark upon a very stylish adventure in Ibiza

With four flagship stores in Italy, in Milan, Portofino, Taormina and Capri, they have now brought their famous frames to Dubai.

GLASSING quickly emerged as one of Italy’s most cutting edge brands, focusing on using innovative materials, often combined in unusual ways.

Fans include Kate Moss, Justin Bieber, Beyonce and Jay-Z, P. Diddy, Cristiano Ronaldo and Bryshere Gray (aka Yazz, from TV's Empire).

The brand is currently distributed in more than 1400 stores and luxury boutiques worldwide such as; Excelsior and LaRinascente in Milan, Galeries LaFayette in Beijing, Twist in Hong Kong, Harrods in London and Mr M in Beirut.

Staying true to their creative roots, GLASSING presented the Glassing Yacht Store last year, a real yacht completely customized and designated as a shop, becoming the first ever floating optical store.

Collaborating with Milan’s famous Istituto Marangoni, Alessandro and Stefano work, not only as teachers, but as mentors to their students, from design to development, marketing and production.

In 2014, GLASSING become official licensee of football team A.C. Milan for sunglasses and optical glasses. After signing an agreement with Adidas, the brand produces and commercializes the collection A.C. Milan designed by GLASSING.
