On the Dock…Shuron Ronsir

My friend Linus arrived to a party the other week in his boat wearing his cool frames from Shuron. The model Ronsir is said to be the frames Malcolm X wore!

Linus looks great in his frames and matches them very nicely with his brogues and a boatprinted shirt!

Bold And Feminine

I really like shapes that are bold and feminine and we see more feminine frames today! Mix an interesting color with a bold frame like Graz’ Eellry or Moscot’s Etta with the cute star rivets!

Metal

We really like the new metal frames and all the structures you can make with metal and how you can recreate a classic acetate frame as a metal frame. Love love love l.a. Eyeworks’ lacy frames and MYKITA’s awesome shapes yet light frames.

Oliver Peoples Gregory Peck

Oliver Peoples has made a frame inspired by Gregory Peck as the attorney Atticus Finch in the classic movie “To Kill a Mockingbird” from 1962.

A round shape frame and key hole bridge. Love the horizontal plaques on the front and the temples, it really gives it the perfect look!

Le Corbusier

Le Corbusier, pseudonym for Charles-Édouard Jeanneret, the famous French-Swiss architect and artist known for contibuting to what is called “Modern Architecture”. He was very loyal to one type of frame, in fact that type of glasses are called Le Corbusier or “Architect frames”.

This type of frame has lots of character, is bold and simple. A great feature is that even strong prescriptions look great in a round think frame like this. Frames inspired by the Le Corbusier frame:
