Luxury sunglasses brand Linda Farrow has agreed terms to open a store in the Royal Opera House Arcade this summer, says Capital & Counties Properties PLC.

Joining the curated line-up of premium retailers already in the Arcade, including Mulberry, The Watch Gallery and Lulu Guinness, the Linda Farrow store will stock a range of the timeless frames, including a pair exclusive to Covent Garden.

British fashion designer Linda Farrow established her eponymous sunglasses label in 1970, which was later reopened in 2003 by her son, Simon Jablon. The collections, inspired by old-fashioned glamour, classic sophistication and pure luxury lifestyle, are crafted using the finest materials, including the ‘Precious Lenses’ line, with frames made by hand using 24 carat gold.

Michelle McGrath, Director of Capco Covent Garden, commented on the announcement:

“The exciting addition of Linda Farrow will further enhance the newly repositioned Royal Opera House Arcade, which now offers a strong line-up of luxury accessories including Mulberry and The Watch Gallery, while being perfectly complemented by the Chanel and Armani beauty stores opposite.”

The bespoke luxury eyewear brand from British spectacle designer Tom Davies is taking a unit in Covent Garden’s Royal Opera House Arcade, reports Capital & Counties Properties.

The distinctive eyewear brand is due to open in early summer and will stock a unique offering of limited edition sunglasses, many of which will be individual “one of a kind” pieces, in addition to an optician service in store. Customers will also have the choice from a range of bespoke and ready-to-wear frames, all of which uphold Tom Davies’ ethos of offering custom fitted elegant frames, which are made with meticulous craftsmanship.

Capco has recently transformed The Royal Opera Arcade to focus on luxury accessories and gifting, with new openings from The Watch Gallery, Mulberry and Lulu Guinness.
