HOW ABOUT OLIVER PEOPLES OPTICAL FRAME BRAND INTRODUCTION

Recommended models: OP-505, MP-2
 
Even if it is released in limited quantities, it can't stop Oliver Peoples from taking the global fashion scene by storm.
 
Oliver Peoples was originally a small company in Los Angeles that made its own limited edition handmade glasses, and professional optometrist Larry Leight acquired a batch of popular vintage glasses, opened an eyewear store under the name of Oliver Peoples (hereinafter referred to as OP) and sold them, and then designed his own products, and has become one of the most popular luxury eyewear brands in the United States.
 
It is not difficult to see it in fashion magazines such as GQ, Vogue, and Elle, and luxury brands such as Prada and Miu Miu have also thrown olive branches to it. There is no doubt that OP is the undisputed fashion leader in the field of eyewear accessories in the fashion industry.
 
Compared with the previous three frame brands that mainly use metal materials, OP prefers to add the use of classic plates, but they are slightly thinner than ordinary plate frames, abandoning the stereotype that plates have always given people to be heavy, and maintaining a sense of fashion while taking into account lightness.
 
When it comes to replicating the classic model of the OP origin, it is none other than the OP-505. It is OP's first in-house eyewear model launched in 1987, and the design is inspired by the vintage handmade glasses of the 20s in the United States.
 
Launched in 1989, the MP-2 is also an enduring classic, with hand-carved metal temples and a double-sided curved frame made of fine sheet rubber rings and metal. In addition, this is specially adjusted for the facial contours of Asians, which is very versatile and more comfortable to wear, which is the original work of OP, and has become the object of reference and imitation by many brands.
 
OP frames are generally made by hand in a limited edition, which has a higher curvature and a strong sense of three-dimensionality than ordinary frames, which can better highlight the contours of the face. The hand-polished flower marks on the metal frame are more unique than those made by machines, and the accuracy is extremely high. In terms of interface details, in the connection between the temple arm and the frame, the OP is always a right-angled L-shaped inlay, which opens and closes smoothly and is durable.
 
As a fashion vane of glasses that has swept the world, OP still insists on giving priority to quality and never produces in large quantities, even if there are many stores, only a few hundred pairs of glasses are distributed for global sale. The Asian version comes from Japan, fits the Asian face shape, is finely made, and the price is lower than the European version, and you can buy a pair at a price of about 2,000 yuan, which is more recommended for Chinese consumers.
