Fashion designer Vera Wang brings her highly refined style sense to the luxurious collection of frames she creates. The graceful silhouette of Ottillie, with its full shape and rounded curves, reflects elegance and chic. Water colour tones are soft and easy to wear, and this beautiful shade of silky green acetate harmonizes with many different colours.

The contemporary styling of Jono Hennessy’s latest optical collection flatters a variety of face shapes. With beautiful colourations of silky Japanese turquoise acetate, highlighted with laminated tortoiseshell, the frame has a soft glow that harmonizes with the lovely jewel tones that are a fashion trend for autumn/winter 2014/2015. www.jonohennessy.com JG
Vera Wang has kindly given us a preview of their forthcoming 2014 Salon Collection of optical frames – stunning designs in beautiful soft colours. Eilonwy Lilac is subtle and refined with a transparent lilac acetate front, and temples in marbled tones. A delicate touch is the gold accent that runs across the rim of the frame, and onto the side. The result is a timeless design with elegance and flair. www.kenmarkoptical.com JG
As a jewellery designer, Susanne Klemm understands the components of cut gemstones, and this knowledge now translates into her stunning eyewear collection. SG Want the DJ features a luxurious faceted shape, moulded in fine Italian acetate, with the frame surface round and smooth. I’ve tried on Suzy’s frames, and the craftsmanship, fit and beauty is a delight. The collection will make its official debut at SILMO in Paris in September.www.suzyglam.com JG
