Linda Farrow: Exceptional Partnerships with Jacquemus and The Attico

A legacy of excellence and premium materials

Founded in 1970 in London by Linda Farrow, the brand was a pioneer in elevating eyewear to the level of fashion accessories. At a time when frames were designed primarily for function, Linda Farrow introduced visionary designs that combined elegance and modernity, collaborating with fashion houses like Balenciaga in its early days.

In the 1980s, Linda Farrow decided to pause the brand to focus on her personal life. It wasn’t until 2003 that her son, Simon Jablon, rediscovered a vintage archive in a family warehouse. These iconic pieces, featuring original frames from the 1970s and 1980s, laid the foundation for the brand’s relaunch. Under his leadership, Linda Farrow regained its place among the leaders of luxury eyewear, blending its heritage with modern innovations.

High-end materials

Today, Linda Farrow remains true to its original vision, using only the highest-quality materials for its creations:

  • Japanese Titanium: Lightweight and durable, ensuring optimal comfort and superior longevity.
  • Italian Mazzucchelli Acetate: Known for its deep hues and suitability for handcrafting and polishing.
  • 18K Gold: Used in temples and tips in select collections for a touch of ultimate sophistication.
  • High-Quality UV Lenses: Designed to protect the eyes while offering exceptional optical clarity.
