A firm favourite among the fashion set, Australian designer Christopher Esber is now lending his refined eye to Specsavers — launching an exclusive eyewear collection available in store and online now.

While the optical range made its surprise debut on the runway at Paris Fashion Week on October 7 — a first for Specsavers — the full 20-piece collection features 13 optical frames and seven uniquely Esber sun designs, boasting a variety of contemporary and classic shapes.

“We were thrilled to preview our exclusive collection with Christopher Esber on fashion’s most coveted stage,” explains Specsavers’ Head of Frames, Nelly Soleil. “It’s an honour to be included alongside Christopher Esber’s latest collection and one we feel demonstrates the strength of the collaboration between our two brands. We can’t wait for customers to be able to take home a pair of glasses featured on the runway.”

While Esber is no stranger to a celebrity endorsement — the designer has dressed everyone from Margot Robbie to Zendaya, Dua Lipa and Hailey Bieber — this marks Esber’s first collaboration with Specsavers.

“Designing this collection with Specsavers offered a rare opportunity to introduce Christopher Esber to a wider audience, distilling our brand expression into a considered eyewear range,” Esber — who kept muses like Elle Macpherson and Bella Hadid front of mind throughout the process — explains.

“Each frame is pared back, refined and grounded in our design DNA — from sculptural lines and subtle hardware detailing, through to an organic palette inspired by the natural environment. Designed to be worn every day, the collection offers an understated way to integrate the brand’s signature sensibility into your personal style.”

On that note, here are four frames — for all occasions — from the hotly anticipated Christopher Esber Specsavers collection that we’re adding straight to cart.
