What do antique cars and modern eyewear have in common? 🚘 For designer Jeff Press, it’s all about timeless style! ✨ 🚘 Drawing inspiration from the sleek lines of vintage automobiles, he infused that spirit into the Streamline collection for Press Eyewear. 🚘 We explored the Edge Motor Museum in Memphis with owner Richard Vining, who shared captivating stories behind these classic beauties. 🚘 Each frame is named after iconic cars like the Roadster, Bel Air, Speedster, Stingray, and Cobra! With Vining's help, we found their matching classics at the museum—bringing this stylish journey full circle! Come see for yourself on Saturday, June 13th! ⭐️
