Diane Keaton, renowned for her distinctive style and Emmy-winning career, has ventured into the world of fashion accessories with her inaugural eyewear collection. This move comes after Keaton faced a fashion dilemma when her favorite eyewear frames were discontinued.
Teaming up with Lookoptic, Keaton has introduced a line of timeless readers that reflect her iconic taste. Priced between $68 and $102, the Diane Keaton x Lookoptic collection features a range of scratch-resistant lenses available in standard or progressive options, with choices of clear or tinted lenses. The collection includes solid and tortoise frames in a palette of glossy black, dark green, brown, and taupe. Lens tints are offered in clear, green, or blue, with magnification options ranging from 1 to 3+.
The collection is designed to accommodate all face sizes and shapes, including narrower ones. Comfort is emphasized with Italian spring hinges and wire-core temples, ensuring a snug fit. Environmentally-conscious consumers will appreciate that the glasses are crafted from 100 percent recycled metal and come with a recycled felt case.
Lookoptic founder Andrew Leary expressed his enthusiasm for the collaboration, noting, “When you think of iconic women that wear glasses, there is no one more iconic than Diane Keaton. When we reached out to see if she would be interested in a collaboration, we discovered her favorite style had been discontinued. So, together we reimagined the silhouette, adding tints and new [colorways], and the Keaton was born!”
The launch of this eyewear collection precedes the release of Keaton’s upcoming book, Fashion First, set to hit shelves on September 3, published by Rizzoli. The 304-page book, featuring a foreword by designer Ralph Lauren, explores Keaton’s fashion evolution, showcasing her personal favorite and less favored fashion choices from her childhood creations to her red carpet and street style from the 1960s to the present.
