Glasses of the Week: The Double Take


John Dunlop looks very stylish in his new frames. John decided it was time to update his look and move on from rimless glasses, and made the perfect choice with his round titanium Bevel glasses. He's now also set to soak up today's sun (please stay!) with his Garrett Leight sunglasses in Brandy Tortoiseshell with brown polarised lenses - just in time for the holidays.

Christmas Opening Dates

IMPORTANT: PLEASE NOTE!

CLOSING DATES: Both Michael Holmes stores will close at 2pm on 24 December and will reopen 10am on Saturday 3 January.

Give the Gift of Goldsmith!

New Designs from Claire Goldsmith!

We are so excited - the new Claire Goldsmith eyewear models have arrived! 


Not sure what to give this Christmas? A gift voucher for Goldsmith eyewear would go down a treat! Get in fast as these beauties won't be around long.
 
The London designer has taken a slightly different approach with her new collection to reflect the way that eyewear is evolving. Claire's latest designs are streamlined and more refined than her previous, vintage-inspired pieces. 
This collection is for those who have always admired Claire Goldsmith's frames but felt they were too heavy for them. As the designer has put it, they have all of the spirit and colour of the Legacy range but slimmer lines.
Available in store now! Ask our staff for assistance

'Tis the Season

Stumped what to get your hard-to-buy-for loved one this Christmas? A beautiful pair of high quality sunglasses will never go unnoticed! 

With an extensive range of eyewear from our independent designers to choose from, there is something to suit everyone at Michael Holmes Premium Eyewear.


We also offer Gift Vouchers in any denomination, perfect for the discerning glasses wearer.

Glasses of the Week: Shoot Ready


Canvas magazine editor Dan Awha is always on top of what's fresh in the fashion world, so it's only fitting that he chose a pair of Martin & Martin frames to reflect his style. 

This is a brand new design from the German designer, and it looks perfect on Dan. Great choice!

GLCO x Amelie Pichard Collaboration




We not only have the Bros. Marshall collaboration from Garrett Leight in store, but also a brand new design together with Amelie Pichard, in three beautiful colours.

This frame comes in black, cream with tortoiseshell temples or tortoiseshell with cream temples. But the most special addition is sparkle not only on the frame but on the lenses too! These need to be seen in person.

Shades of Cool


This week's spread in Canvas magazine features a model looking very chic in our Oliver Goldsmith 'Audrey' sunglasses in Light Rum. This frame was originally designed in Notting Hill in 1963 and is the last word in timeless elegance. 

Also pictured on the female model in the main image is the Oliver Goldsmith 'Commandant' in Matte Latte; the light matte finish lends a modern edge to this vintage design from 1964. 

Our thanks to Canvas magazine for the coverage. Both sunglasses are in store now.
