Style – Opaque glasses
Words: Violet
Opaque is a Manchester-based company selling upmarket accessories. The brand was recently founded (literally this summer) by the impeccably stylish Charlotte Grant and Chris Knight. Opaque offers a range of contemporary and vintage eyewear styles at affordable prices.
Summer is passing by now but Opaque’s desire to supply a great range certainly hasn’t. Opaque glasses are also designed with winter in mind: the styles are suitable for all seasons. Whilst they have a summery feel when worn with a shirt and shorts, they would not be out of place in ski chalet in Verbier or even for just covering your eyes after the office Christmas party…
The future looks bright for Opaque. They are hoping to expand soon with menswear and womenswear leather accessories. The main focus of the leather accessories will be wallets, purses and luggage.
The Gentleman’s Journal recommends the Shelby – Flip Tortoise priced at £29.99. Opaque also offer a fantastic selection of women’s glasses, so if you need to get a special someone an affordable gift have a look on the site.
The first styles from Opaque are fast selling out so visit opaquestore.com soon to get your hands on a pair before they become collectors items and the prices shoot up!
