Welcome, Aspinal of London!

Welcome, Aspinal of London!

PRET A VOIR is delighted to announce the launch of Aspinal of London eyewear across the site. Taking inspiration from the British brand’s refined leather goods and accessories, each frame blends quintessential British style with retro charm. Encompassing men’s, women’s, optical and sunglasses, the eyewear mirrors Aspinal’s elegant design language and embodies the iconic look and feel of the illustrious London scene.

Aspinal of London was founded in 2001 by chairman Iain Burton. He started the quintessentially British brand with the assistance of Creative Director and head designer, Mariya Dykalo. Aspinal’s success quickly grew and the brand has become synonymous with luxury leather; stocked by Selfridges, Harrods and Galleries Lafayette in Paris. The charm of the brand lies within Aspinal’s ability to invite luxury-seekers into their world of London prestige, with an offering of accessibly priced pieces that do not compromise on quality.

The brand's visionary blend of fashion design and craftsmanship has been rewarded and Aspinal of London is now part of London Fashion Week's renowned summer and winter schedules. Most widely recognised for their handbag designs inspired by London's chic ready-to-wear glamour, each bag represents the luxurious side of London life in Mayfair, Brook Street and the invariably alluring Chelsea.

With an extensive following of celebrity fans, ambassadors and the fashion elite, including The Duchess of Cambridge, supermodel David Gandy, socialite Pippa Middleton, fashion entrepreneur Olivia Palermo, and entertainment personalities Amanda Holden and Mollie King, the collection is as stylish as the high-profile devotees that are known to favour the brand.

The glasses collection takes inspiration from Aspinal of London’s refined leather goods archive, encompassing high-style pieces, each presented in multiple colourways. Made from the finest materials, each frame is hand-polished and reflects the rich colour palettes found in Aspinal’s luxury leather. The highest standards of quality and care can be found throughout the design process and the collection highlights the integrity and quality craftsmanship that sits at the heart of Aspinal of London. All styles feature the signature Aspinal of London shield through bespoke hinge componentry, the contours of the sides or delicate cutwork within the tips.
Taking inspiration from the chic and glamorous spirit of the 1960’s French Riviera, this season’s women’s sunglass collection features a metamorphosis of vintage-inspired elements including pastel perfect materials as well as retro luxury shapes and styling. Aspinal of London’s iconography as well as the signature lion’s head motif makes a welcome return and ensures that the collection remains true to the London brand’s unparalleled creative vision. Similarly, the men’s Sunwear styles embody the same accents of the jet-setter lifestyle, with sartorial details and a selection of strong aviator, D-shape eye rims and wayfarer styles. All Aspinal of London sunglasses are fitted with optical quality CR39 lenses and are suitable for a wide range of prescription lenses.
