Nothing screams fashion more than the l.a. Eyeworks brand, which launched on September 9th, 1979 when Barbara McReynolds and Gai Gherardi opened a single boutique storefront on Melrose Avenue in Los Angeles. The eyewear brand’s well known ad campaign that featured hundreds of high-profile celebrities carried a tagline that aptly expressed the l.a. Eyeworks’ M.O. “A face is like a work of art, it deserves a great frame.” A female founded and run company has grown into an internationally recognized brand with a look that cannot be mistaken for another designer. If you want to stand out amongst the crowd and make a statement, l.a. Eyeworks could be the perfect fit!
Born from a wild dream of two opticians who happen to fall in love with each other and eyewear; Anne et Valentin is a French eyewear brand founded in 1981. They opened a small frame shop in Toulouse…the south of France. The first small collection was of colored acetates which debuted in their own shop and also with a few early adopter opticians internationally. In 1994 the first titanium frames were introduced. Anne et Valentin is sold in 20 countries in the finest boutiques. Despite their global success, Anne et Valentin remains true to its roots, continuing to prioritize quality and innovation in all of their frames. They are committed to creating eyewear that not only looks great but also makes their customers feel great, allowing them to express their individuality and style in a unique and meaningful way.

Once you put a Lindberg on, it’s hard to wear anything else.
Oliver Peoples started in 1986 when brothers Larry and Dennis Leight trusted their passion and opened their first optical boutique on legendary Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood, California. Earlier that year, they purchased an estate collection of vintage American-made eyewear. The assortment included thousands of beautifully filigreed rimless and metal frames, including clip-on metal sunglasses. All the frames were unworn, in mint condition and in their original packaging. It was a motherload for the two brothers, given their love for 1940s – 1960s eyewear. The designs have stayed true to the original “retro” look. The designs of Oliver Peoples are influenced by a vintage style that seeks to forego modern and contemporary designs and colors in favor of the classic, timeless styles in an array of natural finishes with discreet branding and subtle details. Continuing on with their sophisticated and classic designs the vintage aesthetic that inspired the first collections remains at the heart of the brand today.
Brunello Cucinelli is synonymous with Italian elegance and sophistication. Since its inception, the brand has embraced a philosophy of creating products that embody quality and artistry. This dedication is evident in every piece of their eyewear collection, where each frame is a perfect blend of contemporary style and classic charm.
