new eyewear never fails to disappoint.

Planning how we can wow the good people of Manchester even more in 2026, the Seen Team scouted new launches from our partner brands and the new collections we’re considering bringing to Manchester. We also hung out in Karl Lagerfeld’s Parisian home and belted out Oasis with Garrett Leight…as one does!

When we think of Cutler and Gross, it’s hard not to think of bold design, impeccable craftsmanship, and true British style. Born in the capital back in 1969, this iconic eyewear house has been shaping how we see (and look) for over half a century, with designs that feel just as fresh today as they did on day one.

So, who better to guide us around the Big Smoke than the Cutler and Gross team themselves?
