As Google continues the slow march towards making Google Glass a viable consumer product, one of the issues they are addressing is the fashion statement the devices make. They have announced some new offerings to help potential fashion conscious users of Google Glass with five new frames and eight shades from designer Diane von Furstenberg. Dubbed the DVF | Made for Glass collection, the new choices will be available starting June 23rd through the Google Glass store and Net-A-Porter, an on-line luxury fashion retailer.

Google already has a line of frames and shades available known as the Titanium collection. To help promote sales of that collection, they are expanding the distribution channel to include MR PORTER, an online retail source for men’s fashion.

This is not the first time Google has worked with DVF. In 2012 they made Google Glass available to models preparing for the DVF Spring 2013 fashion show which eventually led to a video showing those preparations.
