A trend, currently set by some top German and Danish frame designers, is to keep their designs simple, with clean lines, light but still extremely robust and strong. 3 companies in particular stand out: ic!berlin, MYKITA from Germany and Lindberg from Denmark.

I love this collection and couldn’t resist using one of the acetate frames for my own prescription. It was the “OTTO” that I was particularly fond of.
