ILLESTEVA was founded in 2009. Our glasses are handmade in France, Italy and Germany in concert with the world’s leading manufacturers of luxury eyewear. Illesteva pushes normal boundaries of design by exploring fresh shapes and materials like acetate, bamboo, wood, titanium and natural buffalo horn with each new frame design. Drawing from downtown NY as well as music, fashion, and photography, Illesteva is stocked by better retailers worldwide including Barneys NY, Opening Ceremony NY and LA, Colette Paris, Lane Crawford Hong Kong, Browns London and Net-a-Porter. Celebrity fans include Lady Gaga, Beyonce, Julia Roberts, Kate Bosworth, Katy Perry, Alexa Chung, Kirsten Dunst, MIA, Vanessa Hudgens, and Sienna Miller.
