McPherson & Valentine Debuts in India with Saif Ali Khan and a New Language of Luxury

A new chapter in sunglass sophistication begins as McPherson & Valentine enters India with the launch of two debut collections: The Classics and The Supermodel Collection, fronted by actor and style icon Saif Ali Khan.

Defined by craftsmanship, clarity, and confidence, McPherson & Valentine is not chasing trends. It is building a legacy. Inspired by Scottish heritage and shaped by Indian sensibility, the brand stands for timeless luxury and effortless individuality. Every pair is designed for those who lead with presence and quiet power. The debut collections reflect this ethos with distinctive, minimalist designs crafted from Italian acetate, titanium, and nylon lenses, all chosen for their enduring quality and sophisticated aesthetic.

“At McPherson & Valentine, our vision has always been clear — to craft sunglasses that feel timeless, intentional, and quietly powerful” says Paresh Khivesara, Co-founder. “. We believe great design doesn’t have to shout; it should simply feel right the moment you put it on. Every frame is a study in balance — of precision, material, and emotion. We wanted to create pieces that feel personal and effortless, like they’ve always belonged to you. Saif Ali Khan brings that same natural elegance to everything he does. He doesn’t follow style — he defines it with calm certainty. That’s the spirit our brand was built on.”

The Classics Collection draws from the brand’s Scottish origins, bringing together tradition and modern design. Frames like the Bridge of Allan aviators feature streamlined silhouettes in hues such as deep green, charcoal black, and warm whisky brown. The Supermodel Collection takes its cues from the energy of fashion capitals like Paris, Milan, and New York. Sculptural wayfarers and bold cat-eyes, including the Wallace and Vantage frames, offer a clean, editorial edge with striking confidence.

Each piece is handcrafted using premium materials such as Italian acetate, lightweight titanium, and high-clarity nylon lenses. Designed with comfort and longevity in mind, these sunglasses aren’t made for a fleeting trend — they’re crafted to become part of your personal signature. These sunglasses are built for both comfort and longevity, designed not for a season but to become part of your signature.

In the debut fashion film, Saif Ali Khan moves with a quiet command — transitioning seamlessly from boardroom sharp to coastal ease. Each frame captures more than just style; it embodies a state of being. This is Effortless Confidence — the soul of McPherson & Valentine’s campaign and the spirit that defines its latest collection. With his signature poise and magnetic restraint, Saif brings the brand’s vision of quiet luxury to life, making him not just the face, but the essence of this bold new chapter in the world of sunglasses.

Speaking on this association, Saif Ali Khan shared, "I've always believed that style is timeless. Paresh, and their team have created fine-quality sunglasses, and I'm happy to be associated with this brand."

McPherson & Valentine is now available at MacV stores, The Sunglass Atelier, and a curated network of premium eyewear retailers across India.
