The world's largest internet search engine, Google, has announced a new range of fashionable Google Glass, in collaboration with fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg.

The new designs will be out for sale from July 23, and will be available from online fashion retailer Net-a-porter and Google itself.

According to the Verge, the new range will be showcased by von Furstenberg at a presentation tomorrow.

However, Google was earlier criticized for the design of the device, and designer Marc Newsom left the company saying that Google Glass is a fantastic piece of technology, but one looks stupid wearing the gadget.

Von Furstenberg, known for introducing the wrap dresses, has used Glass in her work earlier too and believes that Glass is a historic creation.
