KES - MADE to MEASURE

KES is a structured unisex frame with a slightly masculine character, defined by a distinctive downward dipped brow line. Formal, architectural and quietly avant garde, KES brings clarity and presence to the face without feeling heavy or overstated.

Overview of KES

KES is designed as a bold, refined silhouette that balances structure with wearability. The frame features downward dipping brow points, which gives the upper edge a calm, steady expression. Combined with its modest depth and controlled geometry, the result is a frame that feels composed, slightly formal and visually intelligent.

Originally created for medium to low bridges, KES offers a generous amount of space between the brow and bridge, which lets the frame sit comfortably and naturally on faces with lower brows or stronger brow lines. Its width and proportions also make it exceptionally good for wider faces, providing presence without adding heaviness.

Who KES Suits

Face Shapes:

  • Wider faces needing structure without heaviness

  • Oval or rectangular faces that suit sharper brow geometry

  • Heart shaped faces requiring balance across the brow

Features:

  • Medium to low bridge heights

  • Lower brow lines

  • Stronger brow bones or defined brow shape

  • Wearers who want a frame that feels architectural and composed

KES creates visual stability on faces with lower brows or downward angled brow lines. The dipped brow points follow the natural anatomy, which makes the frame sit naturally and comfortably. The straight, steady brow adds clarity and focus to the eye area, while the moderate depth prevents the frame from feeling oversized or heavy.

Available in 2 Weights

Fine:

Clean, refined and subtly formal. The slimmer rim highlights the controlled geometry and makes the frame feel minimal and contemporary. Fine KES is ideal for wearers who want a structured shape that still feels light and unobtrusive.

Heavy:

Architectural and statement led. The increased rim thickness sharpens the silhouette and emphasizes the downward dipped brow detail. In deeper colours it has a bold, almost sculptural presence. In lighter tones it feels modern, graphic and editorial.

Materials, Colours & Craftsmanship

KES is handcrafted from premium Italian cellulose acetate, chosen for its strength, depth of colour and ability to hold precise structural lines. Each frame is individually cut, shaped and polished in our London workshop. The shaping of the brow, the refinement of the bridge points and the smoothing of the lower rim are all carried out by hand to achieve a crisp yet wearable silhouette.

All of our frames use premium German hardware, high precision hinges selected for their durability, smooth action and long term reliability.

KES is available in a thoughtful palette ranging from deep tortoises and charcoals to warm browns and softer neutrals. Lighter or transparent colours emphasise its architectural lines, while darker tones enhance its composed, masculine character.
