Alain Mikli frames: background
In the late 1970's a 22 year old Frenchman, recently qualified as an optician, decided that the frames he was selling were so uninspiring that he had no choice other than to design his own.
Almost 30 years later, Mikli is widely regarded as the finest eyewear designer in the world. Alain Mikli glasses are innovative, bold, exciting, sometimes retro, sometimes futuristic, always beautifully made. They feel good as well as look good, with Mikli distributing the weight of a pair of glasses more evenly so the pressure is no longer focused on the ears and the bridge of the nose.
Iris Optical has carried Alain Mikli frames since 2002, and its popularity has increased ever since.
For customers in the UK, these frames are stocked in our London SE1 (Tower Bridge), London E1 (City, close to Spitalfields Market) and Richmond TW9 stores.
For customers outside of London England, these glasses can also be ordered by phone.
