The Spring Summer 25 collection pays homage to London in the early 1970s. Secrecy and intrigue defined the era, as spies moved through the shadows and the Cold War soldiered on.

The Cutler and Gross collection draws us into the unknown, where the lines of fact and fiction are blurred and identities are questioned. It ventures into a world made richer by John le Carré’s penmanship, where a bespectacled George Smiley searches for the truth. A world where omniscient eyes are masked behind glasses. A world of shadows.

Shop The Collection

Bold lines are balanced by clandestine detailing – an engraved core wire, a weighted hinge – with each pair handcrafted with calculated precision. Oversized frames conceal more than they reveal and embody the allure of the unknown. The drama is heightened with gleaming 25K Gold-plated metalwork, which details the Limited Edition frames. And gradient lenses reflect the dance between light and dark, good and evil.

"The more identities a man has, the more they express the person they conceal."

John le Carré, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (1974)

Eight opticals and five sunglasses are introduced. The sleek designs invite you to slip into the shadows, where confidence is key, discretion is everything, and the true story is hidden from sight.

“The unmatched craftsmanship of our artisans reaches new heights this season. Each frame has a story to tell.”

Alessandro Marcer, Cutler and Gross Creative Director
