💜 Say hello to Margaret, who recently visited us in Manchester and left with a frame that’s as vibrant and elegant as she is—the Blackfin Long Island BF1000 in colour 1512.

This frame is a masterclass in modern minimalism: lightweight titanium construction, clean Italian design, and that incredible violet hue that brings a burst of colour without overwhelming. The soft cat-eye shape flatters her features beautifully and brings out the very best in her.

Margaret was looking for something fresh, feminine and distinctive—and she found it. Safe to say, she looks phenomenal. ✨

All eyes on Sarina. 👓⚽️

As England head into the final tonight, we’re giving a quiet salute to the sharpest look on the sidelines—Sarina Wiegman’s iconic glasses. Cool, composed, and commanding, her frames say exactly what she does: clarity, confidence, control.

If you’re feeling inspired by her style (and who isn’t?), we’ve got two standouts in store that channel that same modern minimalism:

✨ Portrait Eyewear ‘The Stylist’ – Bold angles and architectural flair.
✨ Barton Perreira ‘Ebbets’ – Sleek, round, and built for precision.

Come try them on—because vision and leadership never go out of style.

Now let’s bring it home, Lionesses! 🦁🏆

🔬 Born on this day in 1920 – Rosalind Franklin, the brilliant scientist whose ground-breaking X-ray images revealed the double helix structure of DNA.

Her work transformed our understanding of life itself—and it’s thanks to people like her that we can now diagnose and treat countless genetic eye conditions.

👁️ From colour vision deficiencies to retinal disorders, DNA plays a huge role in how we see the world. At Framed, we don’t take sight for granted. We combine expert eye care with the precision of cutting-edge lenses—because every eye is as unique as your DNA.

Today we celebrate Rosalind Franklin, a woman of vision in every sense.
Here’s to science, discovery, and seeing the world more clearly.

🕶 Heaton Park is the place to be this weekend…
Oasis are back, the sun's out, and Manchester is mad for it! ☀️🎸

Whether you're channelling Liam's swagger or Noel's cool, don’t forget your shades – because squinting isn't rock 'n' roll. 😎

We've got sunnies worthy of a headline act – from bold retro styles to classic festival-ready frames. Come see us before the gig and sort your look from the eyes down.

As Liam might say: “You gotta roll with it.” And preferably not in cheap plastic ones from the petrol station.

📍Pop into our Manchester or Chorlton shop
🎶 And have a look that says: I’ve been ready for this since 1996.

Meet our patient Garyfallia — a talented dentist with a keen eye for quality. When it comes to precision and detail, she knows what she's doing — and it shows. ✨

Choosing new glasses proved to be a stylish challenge… she looked incredible in everything she tried on! But with a little help from Kenji (and his expert eye), she finally settled on the Tom Ford 6066 — a modern, sculptural frame that’s right on trend and effortlessly elegant.

These frames strike the perfect balance between bold and refined — just like Garyfallia herself. We’re obsessed. 😍🖤

✨ One Year of Oz! ✨

It’s officially been one whole year since Oz brought her magic to our London branch — and what a year it’s been! From styling glamazons to mastering complex prescriptions, Oz has brought colour, care, and confidence to every appointment. 💫

Her eye for fashion, unmatched product knowledge, and warmth have made her a favourite among patients and team members alike.

Thank you, Oz, for an incredible 12 months. Here’s to many more! 🥂

Pop in to see her and get styled the Oz way — you won’t leave the same 👑

🎉 Happy Birthday to our wonderful Ang! 🎉

Today we’re celebrating the one and only Ang — a cornerstone of the Framed family and a true optical wizard! 🧙‍♀️👓

With years of experience, an eye for every detail, and an encyclopaedic knowledge of optics, Ang is the go-to person for everything from lens minutiae to frame fitting finesse. She's especially loved for her dedication to children's eyewear, always making sure our littlest patients leave feeling confident and cared for.

We don’t know what we’d do without her wisdom, warmth, and wicked sense of humour. 💛

Here’s to another brilliant year, Ang — full of laughter, lenses, and maybe a bit of cake too! 🎂🥂
