Oliver Peoples at NorthPark Center

Inside Oliver Peoples’ first Dallas boutique at NorthPark Center, classic meets mid-century modern.

Stilnovo vintage Italian lamps and Turkish rugs provide a smart complement to the distinctive vintage all-American aesthetic of the luxury eyewear label.

Named for a signature on a receipt from a trove of vintage American-made eyewear purchased from an estate by the Olivier Peoples founders (including Larry Leight) in the late 1980s, the brand retains the iconic tortoiseshell hues and intellectual bent of a finely crafted object.

Oliver Peoples’ Summer 2018 collection ($385 to $625) features rich colors and custom translucent hues matching those of Swarovski crystals.

The Dallas boutique also stocks Oliver Peoples’ collaboration with Los Angeles digital art curator Jordan Watson. Past Oliver Peoples collabs include The Row and Byredo.

Admirers of Oliver Peoples will also know that Larry Leight’s son, Garrett Leight, opened his own Dallas eyewear shop last fall in Knox-Henderson — his fourth brick-and-mortar location and first in Texas.
