Buying eyewear for someone else?
Start with their style: the colours they wear, the frames they already love and how they spend their day.
Fit and prescription requirements are personal, so speak with our team before making your choice. We can help you explore the options and, if it suits, arrange a time for them to choose with you.
Chopard
For the Jewellery Lover
The standout arrival this season: Chopard brings the elegance of the Swiss Maison to a new collection of eyewear.
From the signature diamond-inspired detailing of Happy Diamonds to the statement High Jewellery designs, these are frames designed to feel as special as the jewellery they’re inspired by. For him, Classic Racing adds a motorsport-inspired edge.
For someone who notices the finishing touches, Chopard offers a starting point for a gift that feels personal. Visit us to explore the collection and find a style that catches their eye.
Cartier
For the Classic Dresser
There are frames that follow a trend, and there are frames that become part of someone’s signature.
Cartier belongs firmly in the second category. Recognisable details, refined materials and enduring silhouettes make the collection a natural choice for someone who appreciates design that doesn’t need to shout.
Cazal
For the Statement Maker
Cazal has never been about blending into the background.
This is the perfect gift for those who believe eyewear should be noticed. With distinctive shapes, bold proportions and unmistakable design language, these are frames for anyone who sees eyewear as an important part of their personal style.
Cutler and Gross
For the Individualist
Classic eyewear shapes are reinterpreted through colour, proportion and considered detailing.
This one is for the person who appreciates a beautifully made frame but doesn’t want anything too conventional, this is a collection worth exploring.
Lindberg
For the Minimalist
For someone who appreciates beautiful design without obvious branding, Lindberg is the quiet answer.
Lindberg’s understated approach puts the focus where it belongs, on proportion, materials, comfort and the details you notice when you look a little closer.
Masunaga
For the Detail Enthusiast
For the person who notices how something is made and loves a story behind it, Masunaga pairs traditional making with thoughtful contemporary design.
These are frames to discover slowly, looking at the construction, materials, finish and details that make a beautifully made object feel different.
Face à Face
For the Colour Lover
Some eyewear is designed to disappear into an outfit. Face à Face takes the opposite approach. It is all about colour, shape and a little imagination.
Unexpected colour combinations, expressive silhouettes and architectural details make these frames a natural choice for someone who enjoys experimenting with their style.
Rudy Project
For the Outdoor Enthusiast
For the person who would rather be outdoors, eyewear needs to do more than look good.
Rudy Project brings performance-led design into the mix, making it a thoughtful choice for cyclists, runners, golfers and anyone who spends their weekends outside.

The best gift isn’t necessarily the most extravagant one. Sometimes it’s the frame that quietly becomes their favourite. Look for versatile shapes, refined materials and colours that work effortlessly across their wardrobe. Something polished enough for work, comfortable enough for every day and distinctive enough to feel special.
Our rule of thumb: Beautiful enough to gift. Practical enough to become a daily essential.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if a frame fits?
Check the numbers inside the arm (e.g. 52-18-140). The frame should sit within your face width without pinching your temples.
What should a good fit feel like?
Snug, not tight. They should stay put when you shake your head gently, with your eyes centred in the lenses.
Why do my glasses slip?
Usually loose arms or nose pads that need adjusting. A quick tweak in store usually fixes it.
Can I adjust them at home?
Best not! Frames bend and snap easily. Pop in and we’ll adjust them for free.
How often should I get a fit check?
Every six months, or whenever they feel loose, tight, or uneven.
Not sure where to start?
