Lafont’s History
Lafont’s products are popular because you can sense the brand’s history in their design. The company started as a small store in Rue Vignon, Paris back in 1923. Louis Lafont set up a niche store that sold hearing aids and spectacles to people in the Madeline district of Paris.
Louis belonged to the art deco period of the 20s, and that influence was clearly visible in his design. It was no surprise that his products appealed to Parisians and his little store become successful.
His great-grandson Phillippe expanded on his legacy by adding some Parisian high-fashion flair to the products. He worked with his fashion designer wife to come up with exciting new frame concepts and designs.
Together, they collaborated with fashion heavyweights like Chanel and Hermes. As years passed, the brand kept on innovating and adding new designs without losing what made them unique. It is no surprise that the brand quickly became a Paris institution, attracting fashionable people from all over the city.
