    EYECON[VERSATIONS] live from 100% Optical welcomes Simon Jablon, CEO of Linda Farrow, for an exclusive conversation exploring the legacy, glamour, and cultural impact of one of fashion’s most iconic eyewear houses. Moderated by Tarrence Lackran, Founder of EYECON and Host of the EYECON[VERSATIONS] podcast, the discussion will delve into Linda Farrow’s pioneering role in designer collaborations, the revival and evolution of the brand under Simon’s leadership, and how eyewear has become one of the most powerful expressions of identity in luxury fashion. Personal, strategic, and forward-looking, this dialogue offers a rare behind-the-scenes perspective on heritage, innovation, and the future of fashion-driven eyewear.
