Cutler & Gross 1386
Founded in 1969, British luxury eyewear brand Cutler and Gross combines the finest Italian craftsmanship with irrefutably cool style. Since its establishment in fashion’s halcyon days, the brand’s signature creativity has been applied to sunglasses and optical frames with their trademark numbered designs and absence of an ostentatious logo.
For decades, Graham Cutler and Tony Gross’s frames relied, in part, upon their reputation being dripped and whispered within style and fashion circles like verbal quicksilver. Considered bastions of iconic eyewear, Cutler and Gross designs continue to grace many of the most recognisable faces in the worlds of art, design, music and film.
The 1386 is the pinnacle of post-modern eyewear design, borrowing its lines from the 1950's American acetate styles but are newly amplified for maximum effect. The sculpted acetate, coupled with interior and exterior milling gives the frame a chunky, bold look without the associated weight.
