TUDOR CITY, N.Y.—Everyday Optix has announced an exclusive licensing partnership with Emmy Award-winning television personality, acclaimed chef, bestselling author and baker Carla Hall for her first-ever eyewear collection. Known for her infectious personality, signature style and commitment to authenticity, Hall brings her own unique creative vision to an eyewear collection designed to celebrate women who embrace confidence, individuality and self-expression, Everyday Optix said. Her eyewear collection is expected to debut in optical retailers nationwide in 2027, the announcement noted.
The collection is inspired by Hall’s own spirit and style, and features bold colors, sophisticated neutrals, expressive patterns and fashion-forward silhouettes, Everyday Optix said. Each frame balances style, comfort and wearability for a collection that is both distinctive and accessible, encouraging women to showcase their personalities.
According to Everyday Optix, a key focus of the collection is serving women who have historically had fewer fashion-forward eyewear choices that truly fit. The collection is developed with extensive attention to inclusive sizing and engineering, and incorporates universal-fit design principles that offer improved comfort across a wide variety of facial features, bridge shapes and head sizes, the company noted.
The Carla Hall collection also celebrates the beauty and individuality of African American women while remaining universally appealing, Everyday Optix said. It introduces an expansive assortment of cat-eyes, rounds, soft squares, oversized styles, geometric designs and timeless classics that flatter a broad spectrum of face shapes. The color palette incorporates rich jewel tones, warm earth colors, vibrant statement hues and elegant finishes that reflect Hall’s approach to fashion.
“Carla Hall embodies everything we believe eyewear should represent—confidence, warmth, authenticity and joy,” said John Castagnetti, vice president of merchandising. “Her ability to connect with people from every walk of life made her the perfect partner to introduce a collection that celebrates diversity, individuality and beautiful design. This isn’t simply celebrity eyewear; it’s a collection created with purpose.”
“I’ve always believed that style should make you feel like the very best version of yourself,” said Hall. “Eyewear is one of the most personal accessories we wear every day, and I wanted to create frames that make women feel confident, joyful and seen. Whether you’re making dinner, leading a meeting, celebrating with family, or simply expressing yourself, there’s a frame in this collection designed for you.”
Everyday Optix said this launch reflects its commitment to developing innovative eyewear brands that combine fashion, comfort and inclusive design. By partnering with one of America’s most recognizable and beloved culinary personalities, the company continues its mission of delivering meaningful products that resonate with today’s diverse consumer.
Additional details regarding the collection, product launch, retail availability and exclusive preview events will be announced in the coming months, Everyday Optix advised.
