Anne et Valentin, Taank Optometrists

Want to make a statement? Anne et Valentin frames are your go-to choice.

Here, Taank stylist Leanne chooses her top design-led picks from this Toulouse powerhouse to have you turning heads in the high street.

Let's Dream, Anne et Valentin eyewear at Taank Optometrists, Cambridge

MODEL: LET’S DREAM

Colour: 9A33

The bottom half of these beautiful little rounds put us in mind of a honeybee with their golden flecks of light offset by a bold solid colour on top. The arms provide another layer of subtle contrast and together, they’re a dream when paired with autumnal tones. They’re just incredibly likable (is that strange?) and versatile, too. They’ve definitely got us buzzing.

Nuuk, Anne et Valentin eyewear at Taank Optometrists, Cambridge

MODEL: NUUK

Colour: 9C06

Be transported back to the ultra-glam 90s with these playful yet pulled-together frames in translucent aqua and white acetate. A masterpiece in contrast, they’re striking but sophisticated and thanks to clever nuances in thickness, these hexagonal beauties remain fearless and resolutely feminine.

Night Call, Anne et Valentin eyewear at Taank Optometrists, Cambridge

MODEL: NIGHT CALL

Colour: 8C10

Daredevils take note, these retro aviators exude more energy than the cast of Fame. They’re Studio 54 and Top Gun all mixed up in one delightfully decadent design. Just look at that electric blue, which positively sizzles against the contrasting red ‘pockets’! Like a disco diva, these frames demand attention. They look beautiful on cooler skin tones.

Party, Anne et Valentin eyewear at Taank Optometrists, Cambridge

MODEL: PARTY

Colour: 8A29

Like an impossibly poised hostess who oozes elegance from the tip of her shoes to the crown of her perfectly coiffed ‘do’, these geometric frames are effortlessly glamorous. Strong, angular lines pair with beautiful stained glass, semi-translucent detailing along the rim. These bold 80s-inspired acetates look stunning against darker or olive skin tones.

 

Pacy, Anne et Valentin eyewear at Taank Optometrists, Cambridge

MODEL: PACY

Colour: 20A30

Tortoiseshell and flattering pumpkin hues soften these oversize octagon frames that look great on square face shapes. It retains the impact of any geometric design, but the rounder style is decidedly more romantic and easier to wear.  A unique frame for a unique individual.
