Profile

You won’t find your typical aviator or wraparound shades in this rowhouse. Look instead for eyewear from the eighteenth century (they carry the designer who made specs for George Washington and Thomas Jefferson) to the present. Vintage and antique clothing, too.

I bought my shades at Fanny's about four years ago. Well, my glasses are still going strong. They are vintage, one of a kind, and perfect for my face. The owner 'got me' right away and patiently helped me out sorting through the amazing selection to find the best frame for my face and my personality. Terrific store! Terrific people!

I went to Fanny's three years ago ISO durable and perfectly-suited-for-me frames. One of the owner's 'got me' right away and proceeded to help me pick out the most perfect frames, not giving up on me and staying with it until I was satisfied. I still have my precious frames and I never leave home without them! Go for the personal and on the mark service, the wonderful selection, the value, and just to see what an amazing and interesting store this is!
