This Report on Form 6-K contains the unaudited consolidated financial statements of De Rigo S.p.A. (“De Rigo” or the “Company”) for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 (which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounted principles in Italy), and the related notes thereto, including an unaudited reconciliation of net income and shareholders' equity to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

DE RIGO

reports sales results for the first six months of 2005

De Rigo S.p.A. (NYSE: DER) posted net sales of EUR 267.5 m1 for the first six months of 2005, a decrease of 3.0% as compared with the same period last year.

Highlights of the Group’s unaudited sales results for the first six months of 2005 include:

Consolidated net sales were EUR 267.5 m, as compared with EUR 275.9 m posted in the first six months of 2004. Foreign currency effects had a negative impact of 1.2% on net sales.2

Wholesale & manufacturing sales amounted to EUR 79.4 m, a decrease of 4.1% from EUR 82.8 m posted in the first six months of 2004. Foreign currency effects had a negative impact of 0.4% on wholesale & manufacturing sales.

Sales through the retail companies amounted to EUR 195.0 m, a decrease of 1.9% from EUR 198.7 m posted in the first six months of 2004. Foreign currency effects had a negative impact of 1.6% on retail sales.

In this release, De Rigo is reporting net sales on a consolidated basis, as well as sales for each of its two principal business segments. In calculating its consolidated net sales, De Rigo has eliminated the intercompany sales between the Group’s business segments, as detailed in the following table:

______________________________________________ 1 The Group reports its results in Euro. On July 26th, 2005, the Euro/U.S. Dollar exchange rate, as fixed by the European Central Bank, was EUR 1 = USD 1.1987. The financial results reported in this press release have not been audited by the Group’s independent public accountants and are presented on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in Italy (“Italian GAAP”). 2 In addition to reporting its Italian GAAP results, the De Rigo Group uses certain measures of financial performance that exclude the impact of fluctuations in currency exchange rates in the translation of its operating results into Euro. In doing so, the Group has calculated its sales for the first six months of 2005 on the basis of the same average exchange rates used to calculate sales for the first six months of 2004. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to both management and investors by allowing a comparison of sales performance on an exchange rate neutral basis. See the table on page 2 of this release. The De Rigo Group's method of calculating sales performance excluding the impact of changes in exchange rates may differ from methods used by other companies.

The Group’s consolidated net sales of EUR 267.5 m were broken down as follows: eyewear sales of EUR 122.6 m, lens sales of EUR 80.0 m, contact lens sales of EUR 39.6 m and other sales and revenues of EUR 25.3 m, as compared with sales of EUR 129.3 m, EUR 82.8 m, EUR 38.3 m and EUR 25.5 m, respectively, for the first six months of 2004.

Foreign currency translation differences had a negative effect on consolidated net sales, particularly with regard to the translation into Euro of sales made in Pounds Sterling, Japanese Yen and Hong Kong Dollars, as the average exchange rate for these currencies in the first six months of 2005 was less favourable to the Group than that during the first six months of 2004.

Analysing consolidated net sales by geographic area, net sales in Europe amounted to EUR 238.0 m, a decrease of 3.8%, primarily as a result of lower sales through the Group’s retail companies and a decline in wholesale sales in certain markets. Net sales in the Rest of the World increased by 5.0% to EUR 25.4 m, reflecting the Group’s positive results in certain Far Eastern markets. Net sales in the Americas amounted to EUR 4.1 m, a decrease of 6.8%, primarily as a result of lower sales in the US market.

De Rigo’s overall consolidated net sales results reflected the contribution of each of the Group’s principal business segments:

Wholesale & manufacturing

Wholesale & manufacturing sales amounted to EUR 79.4 m, a decrease of 4.1% from EUR 82.8 m posted in the first six months of 2004.

Wholesale & manufacturing sales in the first six months continued to be impacted by the expiry of the Group’s license agreement with Fendi as of the end of 2004. Management expects that the negative impact on the segment’s sales of the expiry of the Fendi license will eventually be more than offset by increased sales under the new license agreements De Rigo signed with Chopard, Ermenegildo Zegna, Escada and Jean Paul Gaultier during the last quarter of 2004 and first quarter of 2005. However, deliveries of Chopard and Escada-branded eyewear have only

Sales through the retail companies amounted to EUR 195.0 m, a decrease of 1.9% from EUR 198.7 m posted in the first six months of 2004.

The following table sets forth certain data on the sales and store network of De Rigo’s two retail chains: Dollond & Aitchison (“D&A”), one of the leading retailers in the British optical market and General Optica (“GO”), the leading retail chain in the Spanish optical market.

Total Retail	198.7	195.0	-1.9%	378	388	+10	156	162	+6

D&A’s sales were EUR 120.5 m, a decrease of 5.3% as compared with sales of EUR 127.3 m posted in the first six months of 2004. Sales declined by 2.9% in Pound Sterling terms, less than in Euro Terms, reflecting the decrease of the Pound Sterling’s value against the Euro. Same store sales per working day in Pound Sterling terms decreased by 3.8% . Sales of franchised stores during the period amounted to EUR 32.3 m, a decrease of 8.0%; in Pound Sterling terms, sales of franchised stores decreased by 5.6% .

D&A’s results were negatively affected by declines in sales in both value and volume terms, which reflected a general downturn in the British optical market.

At June 30, 2005, D&A operated a network of 235 owned shops and 140 franchised shops.

GO’s sales increased by 4.3% to EUR 74.5 m from EUR 71.4 m posted in the first six months of 2004, as a result of positive same store sales, which rose by 1.1% on top of the 7.8% increase posted in the first six months of 2004, as well reflecting the impact of the opening of new owned and franchised stores.

At June 30, 2005, GO operated a network of 153 owned shops and 22 franchised shops, having opened a net total of 7 owned shops and 7 franchised shops during the last twelve months.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As of and for the six months periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of De Rigo S.p.A. and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) as of June 30, 2005 and 2004 and for the related six-month periods then ended have been prepared by management. However, in the opinion of management, the interim data includes all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Group’s financial position at those dates, and its results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods. These financial statements have been prepared on the basis of Italian GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the Group’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2004 and the related notes thereto included in De Rigo’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, as amended (the “Audited Financial Statements”). For the convenience of the reader, certain data relating to the Group’s audited Balance Sheet at December 31, 2004 have been included in the accompanying financial statements and in Notes 2 and 4.

Certain amounts in the financial statement as of June 30, 2004 have been reclassified to conform with presentations as of December 31, 2004 and of June 30, 2005.

The Group’s results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 are not necessarily indicative of its operating results for the full years ending December 31.

2. INVENTORIES

Inventories consisted of the following at the dates indicated:

Finished goods	38,974	37,064	39,911

Total	50,460	45,540	51,232

3. INCOME TAXES

The effective consolidated tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was 46.4% as compared to a rate of 44.3%, for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to an increase in the amount of IRAP tax payable on the pre-tax income of the Group’s Italian companies.

4. RECONCILIATION TO ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES GENERALLY ACCEPTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

The Group’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Italian GAAP, which differ in certain respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) ( See note 19 to the Audited Financial Statements).

For supplemental informational purposes, an unaudited reconciliation of net income and shareholders’ equity to U.S. GAAP for the six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 and an audited reconciliation of shareholders equity at December 31, 2004 follows. To facilitate a comparison with the Audited Financial Statements, the letters shown preceding each adjustment are the same as those used in the Audited Financial Statements.

Shareholders' Equity

As described in Note 19 to the Audited Financial Statements:

Due to operating losses incurred by a subsidiary through December 31, 1993, the Company, pursuant to Italian legal requirements, has eliminated losses reported for Italian purposes amounting to € 2,195,000 against additional paid in capital by the former shareholders of the subsidiary. For U.S. GAAP financial reporting purposes, such operating losses would be reflected as a reduction of consolidated retained earnings, and the amount of capital used to eliminate such losses would be reflected as additional paid-in capital.

Condensed U.S. GAAP consolidated financial statements

The condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2005, June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2004 presented below have been prepared taking into effect the principal differences between the De Rigo Group’s accounting policies and U.S. GAAP discussed above.
