eptember Pin Up (Girls love Arni)
Even though
Arni
is - like many Selima Optique frames - a unisex style, it is the women who
have slowly but surely made
Arni
into a Selima Optique classic, epitomizing ‘Sexy Smart’. Case in point:

ew York Fashion Week Round-Up / Spring Summer 2015 Ready to Wear
New York Fashion Week, the Spring/Summer 2015 Ready to Wear edition, is over, and the Fashion Week baton has been passed to London. Time for us to present you with you a little (edited) round-up of Selima Optique appearances on the SS15 Runway. Three labels/designers we love madly had their stylists pull from our current and past styles - and we love what they did!
une Ambrose Making the NYFW SS15 Rounds
June, Selima Optique friend and co-creator of the Selima Optique x June Ambrose line of sunglasses, is hopping from show to show - seeing friends, getting snapped, taking selfies, and wearing a variety of eyewear from our collaboration.
Above: June Ambrose Sporting the Selima Optique x June Ambrose MISSY sunglasses. Seen here (L to R) with her daughter, with Rocsi Diaz, and with a friend from Sheen Magazine. The popular Missy is currently available in Black and in Blue Floral
lsbeth Struijk van Bergen: Selima Optique x Colette: A Special Andy
A series of portraits by photographer Elsbeth Struijk van Bergen, created at the occasion of the launch of Selima Optique x Colette, now bundled and uploaded to our>issuu< page (click to go there).
This exclusive collection of Selima Optique’s classic optical Andy frame consists of seven colors, inspired by the sights and sounds of New York City in the late 1970’s and early 1980’s -think “when Disco met New Wave”, but translated into eyewear! [more]
The design of the frame itself, a mainstay and bestseller in the Selima Optique collection, was inspired by the King of Pop Art himself; Warhol.
Selima Optique x Colette is hand made in France of high quality crystal acetate. The UV400 lenses were custom tinted to match the frames, and are meant for indoor/outdoor, daytime/nighttime use.
A ‘Thank You’ to the models: Dinu, Jeroen, Shanti, and Sophie.

When Selima Optique Founder and Creative Director, Selima Salaun, recently traveled to Tokyo to host a trunk show, ELLE Japan took notice.
