Eyeglasses / Sunglasses Discussion

[Graeme]

Most of the sunglasses shops in London tend to be opticians. There are a few large stores along Oxford Street, and a few smaller shops (with more exclusive brands) on Fleet Street. The latter are only open during the week, though.

Dover Street Market sells Dita and a few other rarer brands.

Beyond that, Selfridges, Harrods and Harvey Nicholas might be worth a browse, and there are a few other places down in Chelsea that I don't really know.

There is a place near American classics in covent garden. That's the only place that I can think of other than those already mentioned. It's on the corner of the same road opposite Zara.

Giles, I was thinking of heading off to Sydney with my hat, so that it was beyond TAA's reach.

Also, I hear that general eyewear in Camden is meant to be pretty good for glasses/sunglasses…. Website is generaleyewear.com.

Liberty also have a good selection of sunglasses on the ground floor. They also have a reasonably good selection of menswear and also have the next liberty x nike drop releasing soon (if not already), if that floats your boat.

Found an excellent place today in Covent Garden, my friend bought a pair of glasses from there.  All glasses and sunglasses seem to be £98.  I tried on a pair called Lewis which I really liked.  Company is called Bailey Nelson.  website is www.Baileynelson.co.uk
