The Lafont Eyewear Collection from Urban Optiques

Chic, playful, sophisticated, classic, artsy, modern and retro are all terms that can be applied to the Lafont-Paris Eyewear Collection at Urban Optiques. 

Lafont offers one of the most eclectic collections of fine European eyewear available, which is why Urban Optiques has made Lafont one of our flagship premium eyewear brands.

We hand-pick each of the Lafont eyeglasses and sunglasses in our nearly 100 piece collection to offer a wide-range of shapes, materials and colors that will work with each client's individual sense of style.

While each frame will convey the unique aesthetic that is only a Lafont, we try to select frames that will appeal to different personality types and styles:  From urban sleek to street hip, from bohemian to city sophisticate, from artsy to haute-couture, from modern to vintage-inspired.

In January 2010, we completely revamped our in-house Lafont Collection to include more than 40 additional, new models drawn from the newly-released Lafont Paris 2010 Spring/Summer Collection, as well as new pieces from the Lafont Reedition, Lafont ISSY & LA and Lafont Pour les Infants children's line. Even more new stock will be arriving weekly.

Our new, expanded Lafont Collection was developed to meet not just the eyewear needs of the Northville-Plymouth area, but to also provide additional selections to our growing client base across Metro-Detroit.

We're especially excited about some of the new couture-inspired frames that reflect some of the fashion trends we're seeing from New York, Paris and Milan. These include frames with animal prints and animal-inspired textures and materials that allow our fashion-forward clients and patients to better match their eyewear with suits, outerwear and other accessories like shoes, handbags and jewelry.

Retro continues to be hot, so we've also added more vintage inspired shapes and designs from Lafont, as well as expanded the collection to include some edgier designs that we think will be popular with artists, younger clients and any person who prefers to set trends, versus follow them.

As Spring approaches, we'll be adding additional sunglasses from the stunning Lafont sunglass line. If you're looking for one-of-a-kind sunglass designs that transcend the typical "me-too" shapes and colors from many designer sunglass brands, you'll want to check back frequently to see the new additions. Lafont sunglasses get noticed.
