The finalists of this year’s Love Eyewear Awards have been revealed by the organisers of 100% Optical, the UK’s largest optical event.

The three day show, which runs from February 25-27 at ExCeL London, champions the exciting world of eyewear and all things optics in the industry.

Following another record-breaking year of entries for the Love Eyewear Awards from independent and major designers, manufacturers and retailers, the shortlist of nominees across 12 diverse categories features Carolina Herrera, Scotch & Soda, David Green Eyewear, JFrey, Vysen, Tomato Glasses and Feb31st.

Nathan Garnett, 100% Optical show director, commented: “Since our launch in 2020, these awards have become more and more prestigious and sought-after, making the shortlisting process a tough one for our judges. Whilst I don’t envy their decisions, I believe the shortlist is a fantastic reflection of the fast-growing and exciting industry we’re in. The awards ceremony is a real show highlight and we look forward to crowning our winners.”
