Graham Cutler has good vision. As one half of the UK-based eyewear brand Cutler & Gross (his partner-in-design is Tony Gross), he always keeps his eyes on the prize. “We have never compromised our original idea of making functional, high-quality eyewear that appeals to sophisticated tastes,” he says. Toronto fans can (finally!) snap up these retro-cool pieces at the company’s debut Canadian flagship store in Yorkville (84 Yorkville Ave., 416-966-5149, cutlerandgross.com). Here, Mr. Cutler talks new shapes and old favourites.

Those of us with a former four-eyes complex will now have access to the mother lode of stylish options courtesy of U.K. eyewear design brand Cutler and Gross’ first Canadian flagship in Toronto’s Yorkville neighbourhood. The brand is known for their handcrafted and cutting-edge designs that have made their frames standout since 1969 (not to mention creating some legendary frames for the likes of Elton John and Madonna). The store boasts over 4,000 pairs of kaleidoscopic-coloured frames to choose from and a VIP room that is dedicated to showcase over 600 vintage frames from the 40 years the duo have been creating their bespoke eyewear. The selection will also include their latest collection inspired by winter traditions and their collaboration with Erdem.
