From classic chic to statement, there’s an optical frame to suit every sartorial twist and turn this autumn. For the fashion-forward, the new Kember design from British eyewear brand, Cubitts, is guaranteed to catch a few envious glances. Subtly squared with a swooping brow line, the stylish specs, £150 including prescription lenses, are available in a palette of earthy colours including moss green. Made with premium cellulose acetate, with the added boost of UV protection, the directional frames also feature bent lugs inspired by the join-less furniture aesthetic of British modernist, Gerald Summers.
Meanwhile, at the Cubitts’ Jermyn Street store, you’ll find the 16-piece St. James’s Collection as well as a bespoke service where made-to-order frames designed to your exact facial measurements, come in a choice of 130 acetate colours. Eye examinations based on lifestyle, profession and medical history are also offered by the modern spectacle maker’s expert optometrists. Eye eye!
