Fabris Lane Optical goes all Woody Allen on us
I’ve never wanted to be visually impaired as much as I do right now…Really. The new Fabris Lane A/W 09 optical collection is heading down memory lane and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!
Launching an optical collection based on nostalgia is brave, but Rod Lane and Mario Fabris know what they’re doing having been in the business for over 35 years. It is clear that passion for quality and originality is what kept the brand strong and turned their 1993 Fabris Lane brand launch into an overnight success. Check out their awesome history here.
With names including Dorothy, Florence, Woody and Winston it’s obvious that there is more to this collection than just the physical. Optical designer, Clare Officer explains that “People like to tap into iconic characters while wearing our more vintage shapes”. It seems a waste not to.
Fabris Lane mention that “inspiration for all the new collections is drawn from iconic eyewear shapes, classic styling through the decades, and an admiration for quintessential modern English style. 2009 is the year Fabris Lane has truly come of age as an international eyewear brand”.
