About Linda Farrow

Glasses and sunglasses by UK Designer Linda Farrow appeared on the scene for the first time in the 1970s and immediately made a name for themselves thanks to their innovative interpretations and exclusive designs. Not least because the fashion pioneer Linda Farrow easily made the leap from glasses as a necessity to high-fashion accessory with her designs.

She distinguished herself above all by bringing various styles and forms to the fore that are now indispensable in the world of eyewear. Avant-garde influences in particular played a key role. After all, it was one of the decisive reasons why stars like Yoko Ono were enchanted by Linda Farrow frames. In addition, the company began to explore other avenues very early on. Collaborations with brands such as Dior, Yves Saint Laurent, Balenciaga and Sonia Rykiel brought new impulses, ideas and, above all, special frames that raised the fame of the Linda Farrow brand to a new level.

It was precisely for this reason that it was a heavy blow for the fan community of Linda Farrow's eyewear when the designer announced her retirement from the business in the mid-1980s in order to concentrate on her family. With Farrow, the label disappeared completely from the public eye for almost 20 years. But that quickly changed when Linda Farrow's son Simon Jablon, together with his then girlfriend Tracey Sedino, discovered a vast archive of vintage stock in the London warehouse and revived the magic of the brand at a time when vintage and retro were having a major impact on the fashion world in the early 2000s.

As we all know, there is always a right place and a right time. And for Jablon and Sedino, both were true in 2003. "It was a time when vintage was in full swing, as a source of inspiration for modern designers as well as for the resale market," Sedino explains. "And the bold names of Dior, Saint Laurent, etc. that adorned the frames ensured that Linda Farrow glasses were guaranteed to catch the eye." They continue to do so to this day, as the brand has long since not rested on past achievements, but focuses on shining with new interpretations and trends without overshadowing its own traditions and individuality.

Who wears Linda Farrow?

Linda Farrow's fans belong to the crème de la crème of celebrities and high profile individuals. Here, too, the brand has taken a cue from the past and collaborated with greats such as supermodels Alessandra Ambrosio under Linda Farrow Sunglasses x Alessandra or Irina Shayk, who was the face of the 2015 summer campaign. Even Beyoncé, Amal Clooney or Rihanna rarely leave the house without a pair of the unique frames.

What distinguishes Linda Farrow from the rest, however, is the collaboration with star designers such as Erdem Moralioğlu, Dries van Noten and Jeremy Scott. Other notable collaborations include the collections Linda Farrow x Yazbukey, Linda Farrow x Khaleda Rajab, Linda Farrow x Kris van Aschee and Linda Farrow x Matthew Williamson.

Linda Farrow is undoubtedly one of the most exclusive and innovative brands in the world of eyewear. They know no limits. "I found working with Linda Farrow extremely refreshing - there are no limits or restrictions on what you do or want to do," says Moralioğlu. "You are given incredible freedom to playfully implement your ideas." Nevertheless, despite extravagance and a dash of craziness, Linda Farrow prescription eyewear never completely drifts away from what it stands for. Every single Linda Farrow prescription eyewear model has its roots in the in-house archives, so that there is always a hint of Linda Farrow history that gives the designs their unmistakable signature. This is exactly what customers and designers alike expect from all products bearing the Linda Farrow logo.

With one eye on the past, the focus is clearly on the future, with Linda Farrow styles featuring flattering round lenses and panto frames as well as the classic aviator and cat eye styles. Alongside shiny metals, black and tortoiseshell acetate frames are particularly popular thanks to their light weight, high wearing comfort and durability. The company gained special attention with their interpretations of the Linda Farrow Cat Eye sunglasses and glasses. The pointed lenses with colored sections and gold plated framing are the epitome of how the brand interprets and, above all, stages glamour and aesthetics.

The quality of Linda Farrow eyewear for women and men is among the best that the eyewear world has to offer. With specialist factories in Japan and France and the use of premium materials such as yellow gold, rose gold and platinum plated metal frames, the company makes no compromises. Because what is written on the Linda Farrow glasses case is also what is inside: the best quality in materials, workmanship and lenses. That is why the pricing is in the upper and more exclusive segment. Quality has its price and yet, according to Linda Farrow Art Director Tracey Sedino, the focus is on one thing above all: "[Glasses] are personal. It's about finding something that suits your face and not the fashion trends of the time. They're always in fashion."
