Catch A Glimpse

Christian and Anne et Valentin

Is that a miniature man growing out of Christian’s shoulder?  Why, no, it’s Anne et Valentins’ French representative Gabriel Gestin in town for a trunk show.

Christian picked up his glasses during our trunk show on Saturday and has his eye on future trails.  Happy hiking, Christian!  (You’d better get going before the Lilliputians scale you).

Anne et ValentineMeet Sara, our graphics design guru, web genius and glasses maven.  Sara’s newest optical selection (top photograph) is from Theo, selected during our Fall 2011 Theo trunk show. The transparent purple hues and exaggerated thickness of the acetate, create an image of sci fi sophistication.

Sara also picked up two prescription sun glasses from Anne et Valentin.  Its hard to beat the elegant design and luscious colors from this amazing French company.  Wow.  Truly stunning Sara.

Duane wears Theo

This frame by Theo is one of my favorites from their new collection.  The beveling on matt black creates a dynamic piece constantly changing with light.  Simple, contemporary and unique.  A perfect fit on Duane.

Kevin in Orgreen

Orgreen York

Kevin picked up three new frames this morning.  Here he models a modern take on a classic from Orgreen. Designed in Copenhagen, Denmark this line is inspired by American sports cars and fighter planes.  Subtly transparent blue acetate combined with laser cut block titanium invokes the sleek lines and high technology of machines built for speed. The perfect pair for life in the fast lane….well, Portland-style, that is!

Catch A Glimpse: Fred Armisen

Fred Armisen wears Masunaga

All hail the King of the semi-mythical realm of Portlandia! Where else would Fred Armisen go to update his iconic eyewear than Visage Eyewear? (He must have heard that we have the best styles and selections in the city). And what more classic frame than one from Masunaga? 

Established in 1905, Masunaga is the only eyewear company in Japan to produce its frames from beginning to end in one factory.  Practically unheard of in this age of mass production and outsourcing. The shapes are truly classic and the fit and feel of these frames can be described only as pure quality.  Come visit us and try on a pair.

Thanks for shopping locally, Mr Armisen!
