Specifics: The Femie Collection is characterized by frames that are sophisticated, comfortable, durable and affordable. The styles come in a variety of colors and textures, including Italian acetate and python skin.
Selling Points: “Women have been demanding frames that enhance larger natural facial features and the Femie Eyewear Collection has answered them with quality eyewear for the confident woman who likes to feel glamorous,” said Cerella Rainey OD, designer of the collection. “We are filling a need in the market and expect pent-up demand from customers. We’re providing fashionable and fabulously fitting eyewear for women.” The optometrist-created Femie frames are based on the distance between both pupils to accommodate women with unique facial structures. Nosepads are adjustable and the temples bow for additional comfort.
