Katharina, one of the main designers of Andy Wolf with one of the uber stylish team reps, Adam at this year’s Silmo trade Show in Paris. They certainly make eyewear fashion desirable and fun!
ANDY WOLF Eyewear walks the fine line between razor-sharp styling & contemporary appeal for a more effortless fashion-forward look. Add in the quality craftsmanship & finely handled construction, and behold- a covetable eyewear collection of exemplary value.
ANDY WOLF IS SMART, CHIC, AND COOL.
The collection stays ahead of the design game with its unique color palettes & innovative color/frame material combinations, but never strays from a balanced, versatile trend aesthetic.
Check out their intriguing website and follow their well- curated eyewear blog, its somewhat of an artistic odyssey with an editorial fashion feel (and one of our favorite glasses websites for inspiration).
Plus, they have a great vimeo video that gives an intimate view of how handcrafting their eyewear is a special process here:
