Metallic Mania

Meet the new neutral for the New Year: metallics. Whether it’s pure metal materials or metallic-inspired color schemes—silvers, golds, chromes, and more have been spotted in upcoming releases from interior design to apparel and accessories. Plus, metallic tones received major wardrobe nods on the recent Emmy Awards red carpet—appealing with muse-worthy magnetism for consumers. 

In the optical, metal frames and metallic tones are a surefire way to embrace upcoming trends while also providing a platform for versatile styling.

“Metallic frames are the new black,” says Evie Lawson, O.D., owner of Eyes on You Seattle. “I find they are like jewelry adding sparkle to our life.”

Here, EB captures a metallic moment, including the stainless steel One True Pair (OTP) 176 ophthalmic style from WestGroupe in a copper/dark teal colorway.
