A FEW OF MY FAVORITE FRAMES:
Alain Mikli: No eyewear creator has greater worldwide recognition. His unique look is unmistakable.
Lafont: Fabulous use of color, beautiful shapes, and très, très French.
Judith Leiber: Famous for her tiny jeweled purses, she has turned her attention to adornment for the eyes.
L.A. Eyeworks: Ah, to be young and hip and in L. A. -- or at least look that way.
Wolf Schnüchel: Handmade in Germany with Teutonic precision. Bespoke versions available at no extra cost.
Kala: Classic styles in beautiful Italian acetate at very affordable prices -- because they're made in America!
Grant/Italia: Wild colors, very thin metals, and small sizes.
Anglo American: Handmade copies of your favorite old frame, or something new from their own line.
Giorgio Armani: Italian classic design.
Toki: Japanese engineering and elegance at its best.
