The shortlist for the 2023 Love Eyewear Awards has been revealed by organisers of 100% Optical.
The 2023 awards, sponsored by Olleyes, have seen a record-breaking number of entries across the 12 categories.
Winners will be chosen by a panel of judges made up of designers, artists, academics, journalists and influencers from the eyewear industry.
Nathan Garnett, 100% Optical show director, commented: “Since our launch in 2020, these awards have become more prestigious and sought-after, making the shortlisting process a tough one for our judges.”
“I believe the shortlist is a fantastic reflection of the fast-growing industry we’re in,” he added. “The awards ceremony is a real show highlight and we look forward to crowning our winners.”
