Face à Face glasses for Mad Men and women...

The first pair of decent glasses I ever owned were made by Face à Face; come to think of it, the second pair were too, and these two glasses remind me why.

Neither of these two latest designs from Face à Face's AW2011 collection would look out of place in the offices of Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce. Top is Ebony, an amazing acetate cat's eye frame, while bottom Kazan, a thin acetate frame similar (although with more colour) to that worn on occasion by Roger Sterling (left).

Both clearly have 1960s roots, but with a modern treatment.
