There’s was a lot of whispering and general cuteness going on between Prince Harry and Meghan during the Invictus Games last September. Not only did it give the world a chance to witness their romance IRL, but we also got a really good zoomed-in look at her sunglasses – which were exactly as you’d expect them to be – chic and gorgeous.
Clearly FINLAY London, the eyewear brand behind the now-famous shades weren’t privy to this intel, because they hadn’t stockpiled plenty-of-pairs to combat with the Markle effect. The Percy frames sold out within hours of her appearance, and in turn the brand saw a sales increase of over £1 million.
Creative Director and Co-Founder, Dane Butler commented "We're honoured that Meghan has been photographed wearing her FINLAY Percy frames on numerous occasions in the last few months. Meghan has her initials 'MM' engraved on the arm of her FINLAY sunglasses…as a result we've seen many customers personalising their own frames with bespoke engraving.”
Happily, just in time for Spring, the Percy Light Tortoise frames are back in stock, and are available to buy online at www.finlayandco.com.
