Silmo: Style with backbone

Silmo provides a wonderful opportunity to search out distinctive and unique eyewear, but this type of collection and diversity usually has to be tempered with ranges with broader appeal and higher sell-through rates.

William Morris London’s Charles Stone New York range offers a mix of high-fashion and value. The collection is inspired by New York in the 1970s and 1980s and features bright, punchy colours and bold silhouettes. Silmo’s releases included the new Charles Stone TR90 models, which feature an improved soft-touch feel and intricate layering of material. The NY106 women’s ophthalmic frame has a simple, rectangular silhouette, which has been given an extra hint of femininity with upswept brows and subtle curves. New to the collection’s metal portfolio is the NY113, a large, aviator-style ophthalmic frame constructed from stainless steel in a three-colour combination, which will find favour with bold male patients.
