When we ordered our frame collection for the new season we spent some time surveying clients to get opinions on the latest looks. Our sometimes wild taste may not be that of the paying public! An interesting side effect of this was the words and phrases that people came up with to describe our frames, and the kind of people they thought would plump for them. Ever wondered how you come across to others? Read on if you dare…..

Women’s Metal, Episode 106 – Words to describe it – Funky, Elegant, Fab Colour, Curvy.

Who would wear this? ‘A woman who knows what suits her, it’s really strong.’

‘Someone confident and sexy.’

‘A grown up – it’s really sophisticated.’

Women’s Metal & Plastic, Episode 101 – Words to describe it – Pretty, really girly, feminine, soft.

Who would wear this? ‘A nature lover, it’s got actual flowers on it!’

‘Only women surely?!’ (Nervous man backs away from us!)

‘Someone very feminine, in a floaty dress! It’s so pretty.’

‘A warm and cuddly person!’

Women’s Metal & Plastic Episode 113 – Groovy, stylish, unusual, chic, classy.

Who would wear this? ‘Someone fun! It’s kind of smart but with a twist, with that

Austin Powers pattern on the side!’

‘It’s quite clever isn’t it? The glasses front bit is pretty plain,

but then it’s really unusual on the side arms.’

‘Me! I Love it! Can I buy one?’

Women’s Metal & Plastic Episode 117 – Unusual, bold, pretty, fab colours! Confident.

Who would wear this? ‘A lady who knows what she likes. It’s kind of grown up.’

‘It’s very strong, but unusual with that open bit at the front.’

‘A business woman who wants to be feminine. It’s all plain

until you see the flowers at the sides. You could wear that

anywhere. Does it suit me?!’

We had a really great day chatting to the paying public and hearing their opinions, and we made some new friends into the bargain! It was interesting to hear some unbiased opinions, and we were really pleased that everyone liked our new collection, up to the point where they couldn’t resist trying them on themselves! Take a look sometime and see what you think……
