New Loree Rodkin Eye Couture

A sneak peak at some of the new styles by Loree Rodkin that we picked up in Vegas at Vision Expo West.





We were super impressed with the new Loree Rodkin collection after looking at it at Vision Expo West in Vegas. The best part about Loree Rodkin eyewear is that Loree chose to partner with Sheila Vance of Sama Eyewear to create her luxurious line of frames. We have been fans of Sama for years now because they are behind Badgley Mischka eyewear. Everything they do is uniquely designed and of top notch quality. All the frames are engineered from Japanese titanium components. Sama was actually the first company to introduce 100% titanium eyewear to the optical industry.














Here is a description from Sama Eyewear of the creation and essence of Loree Rodkin Eyewear.

"Determined to create an eyewear collection of unrivaled luxury, Rodkin teamed with legendary eyewear designer Sheila Vance of Sama Eyewear. Vance worked with Rodkin to create frame designs and decorative elements that perfectly translate the essence of Rodkin’s jewelry into the eyewear milieu.

The collection incorporates Rodkin’s iconic fleur-de-lys, peace signs, crosses and skulls, with Vance’s innovative eyewear designs, luxurious materials (pure titanium, Japanese zyl, Swarovski crystals, etc.), and ultra-premium lenses (utilizing an exclusive lens layering process that produces a multi-colored effect without a gradient tint).

One of the most breathtaking and exclusive eyewear collections available, Loree Rodkin Eye Couture by Sama is a favorite of superstars Elton John, Cher, and Steven Tyler, and is the ultimate jewelry for the face."

These styles and more are on their way to our boutique in Utica Square. We will announce the arrival.

Vision Expo West 2009

Well we just got back from Vision Expo West in Las Vegas! What an exciting week we had meeting with the people behind some of the most exclusive eyewear in the world. We even got to collaborate with British designer Tom Davies on designing some of our own frames that we will feature exclusively at Hicks Brunson Eyewear.

I am also really stoked to announce that we are bringing back Loree Rodkin eye couture. There is nothing in optical right now that comes close to Loree's attention to detail and artistic touch.

While in Vegas we got a sneak peak at the new Face a' Face designs including the new sunglass that won the SILMO award in Paris for the category of best sunglasses. For those of you not 'in the know', SILMO is an international eyewear exhibition held every year in Paris. We are proud to feature Face a' Face eyewear and sunwear, winners of the category Best Village Sunglass at SILMO.
