CEO of the Toronto-based company, Mel Rapp, said: “The importance of eyewear to enhance personality is still often underestimated these days. The most observed part of the human anatomy is the face. And that's where the right frame that highlights your personality is just crucial.”

Designer at La Petite Lunette Rouge (LPLR), Alison Hemmes, anticipates positivity at Opti where it will showcase its autumn/winter 2019 collection.

“So far we have only heard good things about Opti. That's why we definitely want to be there in 2019,” she said.

The new styles feature a double hinge system developed by Ms Hemmes founder of LPLR, Hilarhi Arcade.

Hong Kong-based eyewear company, Rounder Rounder, will launch its collection of buffalo horn frames, as well as titanium sunglasses including ‘Bastet Pink.’

The sunglasses are clear on the outside and pink on the inside to create a floating lens look.
