Popstar and actress Sabrina Carpenter, and NBA basketball player Alexandre Sarr, represent the next generation of the Biggies community – those iconic musicians, artists, culture-makers and innovators who choose to live life in Biggies.
SUNGLASSES OF ICONS
Originally named after the late rapper Notorious B.I.G., who was known for his love of luxury fashion, the Biggie sunglasses embody a blend of street style and high fashion. They reflect the cultural influence of hip-hop and celebrate the legacy that merges music and fashion. They are not just a statement of style, but also a nod to the impact of Versace on contemporary culture.
LIFE IS BETTER IN BIGGIES
In a series of portraits from photographer and director Rosie Marks, Sabrina and Alexandre wear new Biggie styles where their everyday dreams and individuality are revealed and enhanced in the lenses of their sunglasses. The images share an iconic and bold attitude that is felt when wearing Biggies. Because there’s always more to see, feel and experience in Biggies. Life just gets that little bit better.
“I am thrilled to have Sabrina and Alexandre join our Versace family in their fabulous Biggie glasses,” said chief creative officer Donatella Versace. “From Notorious B.I.G. to the extraordinary talent of today, the Biggie community are rebels, groundbreakers and champions of the true Versace spirit.”
“I love wearing Biggie sunglasses; they are my go-to accessory for any occasion,” Carpenter said. “They represent so much more than just sunglasses and I am so excited to be a part of this community.”
“I’ve seen Biggie sunglasses worn by everyone — my NBA teammates, friends I’ve made across the globe, business guys and kids playing basketball in the yard,” Sarr said. “Biggies are for anyone who wants to give and take a bit more from life.”
