When people think of luxury glasses, the name Selima Optique doesn’t always come to mind, but it absolutely should. Hiroshi Sugimoto is bringing a whole new style of glasses to the scene with the ‘Oculist Witness’ frame, which uses the eye test that everyone is used to as the basis for the frame.
The glasses industry is constantly changing, evolving and innovating and this is no more obvious than when you look at the ‘Oculist Witness’ frames. The glasses are rounded and feature the numbers that optometrists always use around the edges.
The glasses will be limited edition with only 25 of them being released, so when they say this is a limited edition release they mean extremely limited.
