Timeless by Design, Matchless in Style
Major classics reload: iconic Oliver Peoples frames with modern-day labels
By Design means a structure as defining as shape. It means nothing is insignificant—every detail has its place in the carefully calculated whole. It’s knowing exactly how to do what you do, then doing it with purpose. By Design is a masterful alignment of every facet and rivet, but the mastery lies in how effortless it appears. From the selection of materials to the finest grain of polish, Oliver Peoples leaves nothing to chance. Fusing the precision of traditional Japanese craftsmanship with the free-spirited charm of Los Angeles, the new collection pays modern-day homage to time-tested artistry, allowing it to shine brighter and sleeker than ever.
Gleams of the Past: Sleeker, Subtler, Edgier Metals
Oliver Peoples retro metal designs: top-shelf titanium, clear cut, filigree artistry
The latest of Oliver Peoples metals shimmer and whisper in ultralight titanium, flowing with perfect precision, yet carrying a hint of willful elegance. The aesthetic leans strongly into vintage styles, reminiscent of smoky lounges, velvet-roped soirées, and the gritty cinematic glamour of the '70s—with a grounded, progressive touch. These frames may float in nostalgia, but they stay rooted in the sleek practicality of the here and now. Lovingly handling iconic designs with the gentlest of skills, Oliver Peoples creates eyewear that bridges eras with seamless ease.
The Estra: inspired by sunset, wine, and big-screen heartbreaks
Styles showcase the finest of Oliver Peoples' storied legacy. Oversized squares shape the face with strong, clear angles, creating a silhouette that's bold yet balanced. The same clarity is found in dreamy, artistic ovals, their smooth arcs sneaking with soft, weightless grace. The lines are light but purposeful, creating flow without excess. Every line has a clear direction, and each curve introduces just enough movement, keeping the design afloat without disrupting its pristine appeal.
The Kesner: Oliver Peoples streamlining their panto flow
Delving deeper into mid-century aesthetics, delicate pantos revive vintage intellectual charm with wire-thin metal contours and softly rounded lenses. In that respect, Oliver Peoples is particularly big on saddle bridges, a feature that steadies the frame like the keystone of an archway, lifting pressure off your nose with architectural finesse. The temples follow suit, curving naturally to mirror the shape of the head—supple yet structured for a barely-there, tailored feel. And of course, an iconic collection like this wouldn’t be complete without a chic tribute to the aviator classic, its high-octane airborne swagger smoothed into a sleeker, fancier flight path navigated by titanium designs these days.
The Noralee: oversized and understated
The form may give structure, but the rhythm is found in the details. The one flowing through Oliver Peoples' latest frames is rich in subtle modulations and syncopated beats. Intricate filigree inspired by Art Deco geometries—such as those of Los Angeles' iconic Sunset Tower Hotel—runs daintily along the temples, bridge, and eyewire. Delicate Argyle engravings, one of the label's signatures, trace fine lines and crisp patterns, creating a textured surface that catches the light. It's these subtle touches that give the new By Design frames their rich, dimensional finish - not only that, but also a defined grip, allowing you to revel in that luxurious tactile feel. With every wear, the collection showcases craftsmanship and finesse in their purest form.
The Avison: aviators as Oliver Peoples like them
The finishes are equally refined and diverse. Bring out your rugged side with the solid, no-nonsense matte gunmetal. Go with timeless silver—a dependable option that fits neatly into any outfit and occasion. Explore the captivating range of gold tones, from quintessential classic gold to the inviting warmth of rose gold. Like the range of roles tackled by a single New Hollywood star, this gleaming variety lends a fresh vibe to the same frame each time. Coupled with striking lens tints like vintage green, mellow peach, and sensuous burgundy, Oliver Peoples' new metal frames are sure to add a subtle yet confident sparkle to every face.
Velvety Nostalgia: 70's Acetate Glam by Oliver Peoples
Bridging decades in acetate: Oliver Peoples guide on sculpting nostalgia
For those craving a bolder presence, Oliver Peoples has some fresh striking acetate designs as part of its Fall/Winter 2024-2025 release. Balancing edge and elegance, weight and air, each piece is a sculpted sensation waiting to shine on your face. The secret is, again, in the seamless fusion of elements, where every bend and every ridge finds its place with purpose. Crisp yet soft, like the velvety breeze of a retro convertible ride, By Design acetates are ready to carry you away.
The Ollice: solid, premium, unmissable
Leading the way are classic squares—a timeless, assertive shape that effortlessly suits almost any face. Occasionally slipping into Oliver Peoples’ signature wayfarer territory, these frames stand out with their bridge arcs and sculptural end pieces jutting out with varied flavors of elegance. Although the build may seem almost too bold at times, the glasses remain light and comfortable, thanks to the material’s inherent properties. Yet, they’re sturdy enough to withstand daily wear, being taken on and off, folded and unfolded constantly, without losing their form or yielding as much as a single crack. Whether on men or women, Oliver Peoples' latest squares combine rugged appeal with a wisp of old-school sophistication.
The Errisson: Oliver Peoples wayfarers at their sleekest
The palettes take a prolonged dive into the hidden depths of understatement. All the way through the By Design collection, Oliver Peoples keeps colors classic and moderate, but it surely knows how to make the most of nuances. Between midnight black and nude translucency, you’ll find mystical greys shifting into blues, rich moss transitioning from green to earthy tones, the luxurious warmth of walnut and mahogany hues, the tenderest of beige, and the creamiest of champagne. Marbled patterns and glossy tortoiseshells breathe vintage glam, and the carefully dosed gradients bring a dynamic, fluid energy to your gaze.
The Lelia: sharp curve, soft presence
This, too, is made possible by the remarkable nature of acetate—its crystal clarity and fascinating ability to play with light, drawing out the unique beauty of each hue. The translucency casts a private depth upon your face, inviting a spellbinding dance of twinkles, shadows, and shifting tones. And, of course, it offers another opportunity for Oliver Peoples to boast its mastery of minutiae, with the core wire glimmering stealthily through the temples when you turn your head just so. With the feel against your skin as soft, smooth, and dreamlike as the palette it mirrors, By Design acetates deliver a special kind of delight that touches every sense.
The Lumar: perfect sculpted-to-fluid ratio
For the lovely ladies, Oliver Peoples offers even more options cast in this premium acetate splendor. By Design brings a bunch of enticing cat-eye styles, their flirty corners tracing a sharp, sweeping curve here and elongating at a smoother, rounder pace there. Additional intrigue is born between subtle layers of acetate that almost make the frames seem like they wink. The heat turns up to a sizzle with captivating lens hues, from chill dusty blue to warm, melted cognac. With every combination of shape and color, frame and lenses sending out a totally singular vibe, the latest Oliver Peoples acetates uphold the iconic tone yet let you fine-tune the frequencies.
