Read on to discover our opticians’ top picks – frames that will pair well with your winter outfits and hobbies. Whether you like to spend the cold season indoors or outside, your glasses are a key component of your attire. Don’t let the snow or cold hinder your style.

CHLOÉ
Chloé is a brand that is famous for its beloved line of distinguished, feminine glasses. This French fashion house was founded by Gaby Aghion in the early 1950s. Today, it is renowned for its romantic, modern, and bold collections that are incredibly popular with women. Chloé’s radiant, colourful glasses will add a nice bit of sunshine to your look during the darker winter months.

Follow Vivi Tower’s example and wear a pair of Chloé frames during your next outdoor adventure. She’s wearing model number CH0081S which is part of Opto-Réseau’s Editorial Collection available in our 83 clinics.

VICTORIA BECKHAM
Are you searching for a look that really stands out? Victoria Beckham’s line of frames are made to be bold. You can choose from among oversized glasses, aviator frames, or even cat-eye glasses – three signature styles of the brand. The collection of frames, made in Italy, is an extension of Victoria’s style. In fact, she’s the company’s artistic director. Wearing a pair of Victoria Beckham frames is a true fashion statement.

Our collaborator Caroline Elie loves to wear her VB642S frames during winter escapades, whether it’s a stroll through her neighbourhood or a weekend at the cottage.

LONGCHAMP
Parisian brand Longchamp is now headed by a third generation of the family that founded it in the 1940s. Longchamp’s original mission was to produce leather-covered pipes. Today, it is a world-renowned brand that manufactures fashion accessories designed to reinvent elegance and what modern luxury means.

The brand’s glasses are easily recognizable thanks to the engraved logo: a galloping horse that represents sophistication and motion. Most of Longchamp’s glasses are cat-eye frames but you’ll also find a few round ones. Here are our top 3 picks for this season:

LANVIN
Maison Lanvin is the oldest of the French haute couture houses. It has been pushing the boundaries of fashion since 1889 when it was founded by Jeanne Lanvin with pieces that were inspired by her daughter Marguerite. The logo depicts a woman and child, symbolizing the bond between mother and daughter.

Sophisticated. Elegant. Timeless. Three words that perfectly describe Lanvin frames, designed with an innovative, Parisian mindset. The bold structures and refined lines are sure to enthrall fashion enthusiasts who love to embrace a hint of luxury. Our opticians recommend the following sophisticated, timeless models.

BA&SH
Designer friends Barbara Boccara and Sharon Krief founded BA&SH as a way to pay tribute to their love of fashion and their desire to create sophisticated yet authentic clothing and accessories. In other words, it is a brand designed by and for women.

The BA&SH style is truly Parisian: combining finesse and freedom of expression.
