About Carolina Herrera Eyewear
Carolina Herrera eyewear is made and sold by Safilo under an exclusive licence from the fashion house, which began in New York in 1981. Safilo pays the licensor royalties and marketing contributions based on the collection's net sales, with guaranteed minimums. The two announced a renewal of their global multi-year eyewear licence on 23 June 2025, and Safilo cites its growth as one reason its Mexican business held up that year.
