Yet despite the recognition she has received, Dolly remains relatable to many Filipinos. She is living proof that success has no fixed timeline and that staying true to one’s purpose can open doors beyond imagination. This makes her the perfect person to banner Sunnies Studios’ latest campaign, which champions how people live, work, and see every day.
Dolly’s relationship with the brand began long before the collaboration. Like many of us, the actress’ love for the brand started with a special pair of eyewear. “For the longest time, I’ve always been looking for aviator frames with two bars in the middle,” she recalls. “No other optical shop had that, but with Sunnies, I found they had it—and they were selling it at a very affordable price. That’s what initially drew me to Sunnies. I finally got my dream frames from them, and since then, I’ve been hooked.”
For its first offering this year, Sunnies spotlights frames best suited for progressive lenses, designed for wearers who shift between near, mid, and far vision throughout the day. These frames allow for custom-fit lenses that deliver clear vision at all distances using one seamless lens. The edit includes classics like Magnus, Clyde, Jensen, and Ernest, alongside newer styles such as Marcie, Millhouse, and Cato—all thoughtfully shaped to suit multifocal wearers.
Progressive lenses are ideal for anyone who struggles to see both near and far—especially those who find themselves holding their phones farther away, squinting when reading from a distance, or constantly switching between glasses. Customers may also book a free in-store eye exam to ensure proper fitting and measurement for their progressive lenses.
Anchored on the message “we’re with you in your vision,” and with Dolly as its headliner, Sunnies aims to inspire everyone to see clearly, think forward, and choose with intention.
