Nitpick: Oliver Peoples isn’t an eyewear designer. It’s the name of a random deceased New Yorker who owned a large collection of antique eyeglass frames. Larry Leight, the designer behind the Oliver Peoples brand, bought the collection at an estate sale and decided it would be a good name for his boutique.
