It’s easy to find your inner Iris Apfel at iSpex Funky Spex, a Melbourne shop that specializes in big-statement retro eyewear inspired by the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s. Located in the hip suburb of Collingwood, iSpex reflects the personal style of owner and freaky-deaky frames designer Michelle Guthrie. Unusual shapes and bright colors are the calling cards of her custom designs, handmade here in Australia. Guthrie’s esoteric tastes are also conveyed through left-field offerings from other like-minded glasses makers (Anne et Valentin, ic! berlin, l.a.Eyeworks, etc.). The shop even employs an in-house optometrist, so you can leave seeing your new visage 20/20.
